Welcome to my Omnissa App Volumes series, where I show how I set up and run App Volumes in my lab. App Volumes delivers applications to virtual desktops as packages that attach at logon, so applications are managed separately from the golden image and can be updated without rebuilding it.
The series is written for EUC administrators, consultants and architects, and follows the lifecycle of an App Volumes environment: planning, App Volumes Manager deployment, packaging and delivering applications, and day-to-day operations. New here? Start with one of the learning paths below.
