Chap 4 - Planning Application Services

Lesson 4 - Planning Application Services

This chapter talks about the particular forms applications can take. Whether they be distributed, client run or client/server. The actual number of roles that can be performed by a server depends on its hardware configuration and the hardware requirements relating to the  role.

Distributing server roles across different computers has distinct advantages such as server scalability, security configuration, dispersed network traffic and others. Terminal services works by running applications on a Windows Server 2008 server and allowing users to operate these applications from a remote location on their computers.

I found RemoteApp to be very interesting,  is a special mode of Remote Desktop Services, available only in Remote Desktop Connection 6.1 and above with Windows Server 2008 being the RemoteApp server), where remote session configuration is integrated into the client operating-system.

See Yall next week,
