Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop Fundamentals

People think that the XenApp is delivering the applications of windows and XenDesktop is providing the Windows desktop. However, the XenApp can also deliver the desktops as well. The major difference is that the XenApp is one-to-many Windows Server and XenDesktop is one-to-one windows desktop machine.

The fundamental difference is that: a

XenApp users share the CPU, memory and disk resources on the same server whereas the XenDesktop users get the single CPU, memory and disk.
The Citrix App users get Windows Server look and feel whereas the Desktop users get the feel and look of Windows Desktop.
The previous users can use all the apps present on server whereas the XenDesktop users can only use the apps which are present on their desktops.
