Het aantal afspraken bij verschillende zorg instellingen is de afgelopen maanden explosief gestegen. Naast de gebruikelijke uitdagingen rondom gebruikers tevredenheid, het proactief kunnen (keten) monitoren van kritische infrastructurele componenten en aanstaande migraties is men erg geïnteresseerd in de mogelijkheden rondom werkplek en applicatie lifecycle management. Een vaak ‘ondergeschoven kindje’, volkomen onterecht, als je het ons vraagt!

Windows Server 2019, but no RDSH? A Multi-User version of Windows10? What’s going on?
Last week Microsoft announced a new version of their Server Operating a.k.a. Windows Server 2019. Since the announcement I’ve seen many comments going back and forth regarding its licensing structure, the use of RDSH (or not) and so on. Here’s a short list of thoughts and facts I was able to gather.

I’ve always had a big interest in printing. It’s something I have written about and presented on extensively in the past. Throughout the years I have had my fair share of failure when it comes to printing in Citrix/RDSH/VDI based environments (who hasn’t?) so I decided to dig in a bit deeper.

Throughout this post I’d like to share with you how they simplify print management and let you, the IT Administrator, focus on Citrix – not printing!
Meltdown and Spectre – Minimize impact and avoid performance problems – how Stratusphere UX can help!
When it comes to both Meltdown and Spectre, the question you should be asking yourself is not if you are affected or at risk – because you most likely are. The question you should be asking yourself is what do I need to do and how does it impact the performance of my server/desktop farm?! Whether it’s virtual or physical, Microsoft, VMware or Citrix based, desktop or server, it doesn’t matter, all need to be looked after.
The Easy Button – A story about Corruption, Portability, Office 365, User Profile bloat, ProfileDisk, non-persistent Data Indexing and more…

According to Wikipedia the user-profiling scheme in force today owes its origins to Windows NT, which stored its profiles within the system folder itself, typically under C:\WINNT\Profiles\. Windows 2000 saw the change to a separate “Documents and Settings” folder for profiles, and in this respect, is virtually identical to Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.
