Abstract
An App-V package is the next generation of an application installation that can be custom designed to reside completely on a user's workstation, partially on a user's workstation and partially on a server, completely on a server only allowing access to the application from the user's workstation, and many variances in-between. App-V allows packaging an application together with its prerequisites, and then streaming the collective package to a workstation without the need to actually “install” anything on the user's workstation. The Sequencer is used to create App-V sequenced applications and produce an application “package.” A package consists of several files, including a sequenced application (.sft) file, Open Software Description (.osd) “link” files, Icon (.ico) files, a manifest xml file that can be used to distribute sequenced applications with electronic software delivery (ESD) systems, and a project (.sprj) file. The App-V Client is required on endpoint devices receiving applications from the App-V environment. It allows for management of package streaming on the client device; such as how much local cache is to be used by the application. It also manages how often the application checks in for any changes, and any user-specific configuration settings.
