This eBook chapter is entitled Application Virtualization and SoftGrid Essentials and is part of a larger series of chapters from his book, Creating the Secure Managed Desktop. In this chapter, you ll learn how to use SoftGrid to deploy applications to your desktop - without actually installing them. You know the story: your users have been working, and things have been going great. Then, over time the machine starts to, oh, let's call it "deteriorate." You load more applications, and things get slower. You add a patch, and some applications start acting "funny." Applications start crashing and users are rebooting more. And you know why. Because Windows doesn't do a really great job at isolating applications and keeping them from kicking each other in the shins. If you have DogFoodMaker 2.0 and CatFoodMaker 3.0 and they each use a DLL named food. DLL, which application is going to use which file? And what if CatFoodMaker 3.0's DLL doesn't work quite right with DogFoodMaker 2.0? Chaos and performance deterioration, that's what happens. This chapter talks about Microsoft's SoftGrid. In this chapter you'll learn how to solve issues like: App1 and App1A on the same machine App1 and App1A on the same Terminal Server How and Why the installation of new software affects other already-running software General "slowing down" of Windows over time, and what to do about it We start out talking about the new idea of Application Virtualization in general. We discuss the various products that can help make this magic happen, but then focus on Microsoft's SoftGrid solution. Here, you'll learn how to set up a SoftGrid server, how to get a sample application sequenced, and how to make sure the whole thing is working properly. If you've already got your hands on SoftGrid but really don't know where to start with it, then start right here.
