Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop are both solutions that deliver apps and desktops as an on-demand service. Basically, Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop depend on the Citrix ICA protocol, which imparts collaborative screen information and the data of other applications between desktops running in a centralized datacenter and the remote user's end devices. ICA is a highly effective protocol that delivers the best performance for single user access over a high latency and low bandwidth network.
In our previous topics, we have already seen how Citrix CloudBridge or WanScaler optimize the end-to-end ICA connection. CloudBridge plays a tremendous part in XenDesktop deployments, where the demands of increasing users are high at the same bandwidth consumption. CloudBridge entirely supports all levels of ICA encryption to keep an end-to-end security at the required standard while optimizing traffic delivered to other branches.
We can dive deep into Citrix CloudBridge with the following...
