At the beginning of this week we published an article about the benefits of application virtualization. But, as we already mentioned in that post,there are also some disadvantages. That is why we are going to analyze the main three issues arising from this technology:
• Not all applications can be virtualized, some of them require special installation options or subsequent tuning of the packet so that they function correctly.
• In an application virtualization environment, standard updates do not usually work, as the application must be virtualized with the installed update.
With application virtualization, it is possible to run an application that is not installed on the work station from the very same work station. This technology isolates applications from the underlying operating system and other applications in order to achieve greater compatibility and mobility of the applications.
The most significant advantages of application virtualization are:
• Reduction of maintenance needs: there is no need for maintenance, installation or uninstallation of applications in the local PC.
• Availability of the application at any time and in any place. You only need to have network access and a compatible device (PC, terminal, laptop…).
