Inside Citrix – The Flex Management Architecture, primarily focusses on the FMA, mainly from an architectural point of view. It will discuss, in detail all of its main components and services, their primary roles and responsibilities and how they all interact, also including some of the most common optional components, features and/or closely related technologies. From the basics to deep(er) dives where applicable, I will make sure to include something for everybody. This book is not meant as an installation and/or an how to manual, instead it will dive deeper into the FMA and related technologies, the true foundation of Citrix XenDesktop and XenApp.
Topics include but are not limited to: A deep dive into the FMA’s main services, its evolution, a detailed overview on the user authentication, application enumeration and launch process, Citrix printing, the ICA / HDX protocol, application delivery, MCS, PVS, troubleshooting, some history, some fun facts and figures and (much) more. I have concluded each chapter with multiple key takeaways (a few hundred in total) and also included over 100 so-called FMA facts throughout. Let me conclude by thanking you for purchasing and reading my book, I truly hope you found it of some use.
