Unlike hardware virtualization solutions such as VMware and Virtual PC, which emulate the underlying hardware and therefore require an entire copy of the host operating system, ZAV technology emulates operating system features required for application execution.

What is ZENworks Application Virtualization? ZAV is a next-generation virtualization technology that allows applications to be deployed in lightweight, pre-configured, single-executable files that execute instantly on any Windows desktop. ZAV supports both merge and override isolation semantics, optionally allowing virtual applications to interact with host resources when necessary.

Multiple versions of applications, runtimes, and components can be executed concurrently without errors.

Īpplication Virtualisation versus Application Isolation The ZAV virtual machine allows the application environment, including filesystem and registry subsystems, to be isolated from the host device, preventing virtual applications from interfering with one another or with applications installed on the host device. The result is an inflexible IT infrastructure and extensive costs associated with application administration, maintenance, end-user support, regression testing, security breaches, and application failures. Why Application Virtualization? Interactions between shared components and different application versions frequently introduce errors when applications are installed, uninstalled, or upgraded. Most applications do not function properly on secured, locked-down desktops, forcing administrators to compromise network security for application compatibility. Installation of the typical desktop application requires a long setup process - file copies, component registrations, runtime installations, and installation of third-party dependencies - followed by additional user configuration, preference setup, and customization. Why Application Virtualization? Traditional application deployment is slow, insecure, and unreliable. Applications are easier to provision, deploy, upgrade, and rollback. A single application can be bundled and deployed to multiple operating system versions.

Application conflicts, and the need for regression testing, are significantly reduced.

It allows software to be delivered and updated in an isolated environment ensuring the integrity of the operating system and all applications. What is Application Virtualization? “ Application virtualization enables the deployment of software without modifying the local operating system or file system. Introduction Who are you?
