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.

Citrix XenApp allows users to connect to their corporate applications.It helps hosting applications on central servers and allows the users to interact with them remotely and deliver them to users devices for local execution.

Xendesktop separates the physical machine from the desktop environment using the client-server model.XenDesktop is the VDI – Virtual Desktop Infrastructure software provided by Citrix.

XenServer is a hypervisor and is also known as VMM – Virtual Machine Manager. It allows the installationof many operating systems simultaneously using the virtualization techniques. XenServer uses the Xen hypervisor to virtualize each server on which it is installed, enabling each to host multiple Virtual Machines simultaneously with guaranteed performance.

About Tredegar

Tredegar is located in Monmouthshire on the banks of the Sirhowy River. It is said to have been an early centre of the Industrial Revolution in South Wales. The Tredegar Iron Works located in in Richmond, Virginia, United States were named after the town.

History

Samuel Homfray who is said to be the founding father of the town along with his partners needed accommodation for their workers, and thus the need to develop a suitable town. Lt.Col. Sir Charles Gould Morgan owned the land on the east side of the Sirhowy river, who granted a lease in 1799 to build Tredegar Ironworks Company. The lease was further extended with Homfray marrying Sir Charles daughter Jane.

To his workers, he paid in his own currency so that they could not spend outside the town.By 1805, the parish had grown with horse carriages being operated as a mode of transport.

Governance – Facts

Tredegar is the birthplace of Aneurin Bevan who is said to have introduced the system of British National Health Service. Aneurin Bevan was also involved in the management of Tredegar General Hospital.
Leader of the Labour Party from 1983 to 1992, Neil Kinnock, was born in Tredegar in 1942 and lived there for most of his early life
Michael Foot, the predecessor to Neil Kinnock, was MP for the local constituency — Ebbw Vale — during his time as party leader.
For a few years Tredegar, once considered a Labour seat was represented by the left-wing independent Dai Davies until the general election of 2010.

Architecture

The two architectural marvels in Tredegar are its Bedwellty House and the Town Clock. The Bedwellty House is known for being the home of the founder of Tredegar – Samuel Homfray. The house is surrounded by a huge 26-acre Victorian garden without any gates. It also includes the Long Shelter.

The clock came into being as a generous gift from Mrs R.P. Davies, wife of the manager of Tredegar Ironworks, who conceived the idea as well. The clock was made by JB Joyce & Co of Whitchurch, Shropshire and erected in the Circle as per the wishes of Mrs.Davies.
