Jan Hendrik Meier had his initial experience with IT during LAN parties before he decided to make this hobby, his job. Therefore, he started as an IT-Specialist trainee. During this time, he came across the company named Citrix®. He collected initial experiences with an early XenDesktop® (or better known as XenApp®) Version – MetaFrame XP. He deepened his knowledge in products such as Presentation Server, XenApp®, and XenDesktop®, and started to extend his knowledge with various other Citrix® products, such as Provisioning Server, NetScaler®, and XenMobile™.
After staying for about half a year in Australia, he picked up a job as a consultant in a mid-size company. Here, he helped customers with the planning and implementation of different Citrix® and Microsoft technologies. Furthermore, he is writing books and professional articles about different technologies. Whenever he chances upon any interesting problems during his job, he writes their description and the solutions for them in his blog http://www.jhmeier.de.
