Application Virtualization

Application virtualization is a technology that enables delivery of applications to users regardless of location and device used, while the application is installed, maintained and executed only in the data center.

The fact is that the end user’s computer screen only displays the requested application, while all applications are being executed remotely in the data center, adding to the overall security of the system. This type of centralized application management helps reduce maintenance costs and software administration while simultaneously maximizing security.

By using a reliable and secure architecture for application virtualization, organizations can centralize applications and data in secure data centers, reducing maintenance and support costs, increasing flexibility and dynamism of the system, with the possibility of a fast and cost effective response to changes in the environment.

The main advantages of using application virtualization for a company are:

• Reduced management costs through application centralization
• Actual application delivery to users at any location
• Improved security through centralized control and secure access to data and applications

Datatek has successfully implemented several projects involving application virtualization using Citrix XenApp technologies, which brought clients a significant qualitative improvement.
