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.

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 Watford

Watford is a town located in Hertfordshire, England, located 17 miles to the northwest of central London .

The town developed on the River Colne on land that belonged until the 16th century to St Albans Abbey . During the 12th century a charter was granted allowing a market and building St Mary's Church began. The town grew modestly. It was assisted by travellers passing through to Berkhamsted Castle and the royal palace at Kings Langley. A big house was built at Cassiobury in the 16th century. This was partly rebuilt in the 17th century and another substantial house was built nearby at The Grove. Connections with the Grand Junction Canal and the London and Birmingham Railway allowed the town to grow more rapidly. The paper-making mills, such as John Dickinson and Co. at Croxley, influencing the development of printing in the town which continues today. Two brewers Benskins and Sedgwicks flourished in the suburb until their closure in the late 20th century. Both the 2006 World Golf Championship and the 2013 Bilderberg Conference took place at The Grove.

Watford is first cited in an Anglo-Saxon charter of 1007 as one of the places marking the boundary of "Oxanhaege".

The Industrial revolution

For many centuries, Watford relied on agriculture. The Industrial Revolution brought the Grand Junction in 1798 and the London and Birmingham Railway in 1837. The land-owning interests permitted the canal to follow closely by the river Gade. Although the road and canal follow the easier valley route, the railway company was forced to build an expensive tunnel.

· Cassiobury Park

· Cheslyn House and Gardens
