Virtualization
 Redirect all application “writes” to the
user data disk, by default
 Reduce the number of master images
and size of base disk
 Provide simplified entitlement,
deployment, and management of
applications
 Seamlessly update users
 Reduce storage costs

How ThinApp Works
VMware ThinApp is Application Virtualization
• Application encapsulation
Windows
Operating System
and Isolation
• SERVERLESS architecture
• Packages the application into a
ThinApp Secure
Compressed Container (EXE)
single .exe or .msi file
• AGENTLESS architecture

Create Conflict Free Applications
Problem:
Tightly coupled relationships between OS,
Applications and Data
Symptoms:
• Application Conflicts
• Complex Compatibility Test Matrices
• Diminished Time to Deployment
• Loss of User Productivity
• Increased helpdesk support calls
Solution: VMware ThinApp
• Agentless application virtualization
decouples applications and data
from the OS

ThinApp Streaming from Network Share
Cost Efficient Application
Density on the LAN
File Server “Network Share”
Enterprise software Licenses
• Deliver applications to
multiple users from
a single network share
• Stream into memory without
local disk footprint
• Read-only Network Share is
only support burden
• Utilize DFS for replication and
branch office solution
• Excellent mechanism for
integration with View desktops
ThinApp from USB
Enabling Mobility without
Compromising on Security
• Run applications from USB
devices on any end point
• User-mode only execution
allows for deployment on
locked-down PCs
• End users can continue with
their activity with their favorite
applications
Locally Deploy with Existing Management Framework
Locally Deploy
Deliver ThinApp Packages using existing
process and workflow
ie. MSSCCM, BMC, HP, CA, LanDesk
• Leverage existing
workflow to distribute as
MSI or Exe packages
• Application performance
based on local resources
• Simplicity for harvesting
inventory and usage
Variety of endpoints
Application Sync : Update ThinApp Packages
Manage Mobility with Ease
• Manage applications in the
extended enterprise: Partners,
Subsidiaries
• Ship only what they need,
when they need it
Enable Workforce Mobility
• Flexible delivery to a variety of
devices (USB, Thin Client, PC)
• Conflict free application
HTTP/HTTPS Byte Level Updates
over WAN/LAN via Active Directory
updates for unmanaged PCs
(WAN)
Application Link – Connect ThinApps
.NET/Java Runtime
Seamless Interoperability
Enhance License Management
• ThinApp packages can talk
• Reduces package size to
together and with OS
• Enables interoperability
between virtual applications
and underlying OS
ease deployment and delivery
• Enhances software license
management tracking via
current inventory tools
Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 Support
• Full support for the following Windows operating systems at the same level
as Windows XP and Windows Vista
 Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit)
 Windows Server 2008 R2
• New applications captured on older platforms (XP or Vista) can now run on
Windows 7/Server 2008
• Windows 7/Server 2008 can also be used to capture new applications
 Best practice: Capture platform <= Deployment platform
Begin Windows 7 Migration with VMware ThinApp
• Assess application compatibility
• Identify and prioritize application requirements
• Virtualize applications using ThinApp

based on the Connection Server
used for access
• Example – All users can access
desktops within the firewall but
only some may access
desktops from outside of the
firewall
• Can also be used to restrict
