1. Application management and delivery of Appdisk technology

The 7.8 release includes the latest Appdisk application tiering technology, allowing us to package and manage applications independently of the primary desktop or server's image. The process is that when we publish the desktop based on a standard template, when employees with differentiated requirements need to install an application immediately, we do not need to update our main template image, but use Appdisk technology to package the app directly to the employee. This kind of application distribution can be done anywhere and anytime without affecting our overall master image template. Such a way can also reduce our application complexity on the primary mirror.

2. Integrating Appdisk and Appdna

In previous releases, using applications or migrations, to speed up the compatibility of test applications, Citrix provided a truly specialized component called Appdna, which is used to speed test application compatibility issues. In version 7.8, Citrix integrates it into the studio console, and integrates with Appdisk. Is that we provide instant evaluation of the compatibility of Appdisk applications and the best performance of applications during application distribution using Appdisk.

3. Microsoft's App-V packages seamlessly managed by Citrix Studio

The convergence between Microsoft production and Citrix is getting better. Now we can use Citrix Studio to manage the distribution of app-V application packages to virtual desktops or XenApp servers without the need for a separate app-V server and database infrastructure, simplifying the deployment process and additional infrastructure costs while providing an exceptional experience with the same application flow.

4. Enhanced app publishing experience in Citrix Studio

Large enterprises manage thousands of of applications through hundreds of XenApp and xendesktop servers. In version 7.8, Citrix enhanced the management console of studio to provide a more intuitive user interface for publishing applications. The new studio interface enables us to quickly publish applications to multiple delivery groups. In addition, improved label management capabilities can be used across devices, applications, and delivery groups, making it easier for us to track and index them.

5, Framehawk Remote display technology enhancement

Remote display technology is part of the Citrix HDX protocol, a technology that adjusts the user experience when network conditions are poor, and provides real-time network interaction. This version of 7.8 enhances scalability by scrolling through the touch input, reducing memory consumption by more than 40%, and increasing CPU efficiency by 20%, while providing more than 50% bandwidth efficiency improvements. These enhancements, combined with significantly higher frame rates, create an unparalleled remote user experience.

6.3D graphics performance of virtual desktops

7.8 This release brings more enhancements to 3D, including the combination of Framehawk display technology with our high-performance HDX 3D Pro graphics acceleration and Windows 7 and 8 virtual desktops.

7. Enhanced monitoring for VDI and remote PC session recording

The smart session record is officially available in version 7.8, and the previous version of 7.6 can only be used for XenApp. Now available for XenDesktop VDI and remote PC access and published XenApp applications and desktops. Intelligent session logging, which can monitor the virtual desktop for recording instant on-demand playback or a user activity in a virtual application. Recording an active session can help expedite problem resolution and audit efforts.

8. Simplify the virtualization of health care applications

The priority of virtualization for key business applications in the healthcare industry is to ensure security, protect data privacy, and meet compliance requirements. However, certain medical applications require special licenses. The architecture of XenApp and XenDesktop 7.8 now addresses Application virtualization issues for this type of medical application.

9. New automated deployment and simplified site configuration

Streamline new XenApp and XenDesktop deployments and integrate with the Citrix Lifecycle management environment to continuously monitor system health. As part of the 7.8 release, the active Software maintenance (SWM) or subscription Advantage (SA) for all XenApp and XenDesktop customers will have the opportunity to gain a streamlined deployment version of Citrix Lifecycle management and automated XenApp and xendesktop deployment Tools.

In addition, 7.8 will release a new secure browser Deployment Toolkit as a tool for automating the deployment of XenApp to help you quickly deploy and securely deliver Web and SaaS applications. With today's diversity of browser types and versions, the challenge of supporting Web and SaaS applications is challenging, and the 7.8 new secure Browser Deployment toolkit will help you solve the challenges of updating on-premises browsers and securely deliver Web and SaaS applications.
