VPC Everywhere
Virtual Applications Everywhere Amazon recently announced VPC as generally available in every AWS Region, along with some additional features. If you search back through my posts, you will see a lot of work has been done getting XenApp into the Amazon cloud. We have pre-built XenApp AMI's for use in EC2, as well as VPC. VPC is the best of cloud computing because it allows you to build ...
XenApp Farm in the cloud
Scalable XenApp in the CloudI previously posted how to create a XenApp 5.0 server and a XenApp 6.0 server in Amazon EC2. A one-off server is good for starters, but you might eventually want to build a "scalable" XenApp farm in the cloud. Having a XenApp farm that scales requires that the components of XenApp be broken out and install on their own servers. ...
XenApp 6.0 in the cloud
Build Your Own XenApp 6.0 in the Cloud I previously posted how to create a XenApp 5.0 server in Amazon EC2. Now that XenApp 6.0 is released, some folks might want to build XA 6.0 in the cloud. We have already built "ready to use" XenApp servers in Amazon EC2. Just search for Citrix in the AMI section and launch them. You can also ...
Can They Match This?
It's been a long time in the making, and the announcement is perhaps predictably short on detail. But it's fantastic to be able to publicly comment for the first time on our partnership with Amazon.Everyone knows that Amazon (AWS) operates the largest IaaS cloud. With a customer list that reads like the who's who of web brands, AWS knows more about ...
Cloudy with a chance of Apps
Xen Apps from the CloudWhether you decide on Amazon EC2 or Amazon VPC, XenApp is easily deployed in the cloud. There has been alot of talk about cloud computing. There are believers and naysayers, but this is to be expected with any forefront technology. Whatever the talk is on the internet highway, one thing is clear. Cloud Computing makes sense, and we are ...

Pizza and Clouds – Reloaded
In a recent post I argued that enterprise IT's distrust of service provider Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is often based on lack of understanding. In particular the unfamiliar nature of the API-centric, services-based architecture of IaaS, by comparison with the concrete feeds+speeds of today's physical IT world, leaves many IT Pros cold. Of late I've found myself using an analogy of buying Pizza ...
XenApp in the Cloud? Heck Yes
I frequently hear from customers that today's clouds aren't "enterprise class". Indeed at a Geek Speak event earlier this week, the majority of the debate focussed on the key issue that our CTPs have with today's IaaS clouds: They don't believe that they can get today's enterprise apps to run in the cloud, and they have concerns about availability, security and so on.My view ...
Citrix cloud delivery, who’s doing it? Opportunities and streaming Citrix clients.

Check out Craig Ellrod's blog postIt's great to see people thinking about ways to extend the reach of the Citrix Delivery Infrastructure. Our very own Scott Swanburg has blogged about this for several months. ...
Amazon Virtual Private Cloud ( VPC ) Opens the Door to Citrix Customers
The Amazon Web Services (AWS) announcement of the Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) offering has just made Cloud Computing more attractive to the enterprise. Most companies I talk with are interested in the "Cloud", but beyond a few SaaS apps and perhaps some dev/test they are not ready for any big change to their corporate IT infrastructure. On the other hand many of those same ...
