For many, the next 12-24 months mark an important milestone for their application packaging and testing strategy as they move from traditional, manually-driven application packaging to a more automated and continuous process to satisfy the demands of their faster-than-ever evolving IT environment. Now that most Windows 10 migrations are well under way or completed, many enterprises…
On November 19th, 2018, Microsoft announced its acquisition of Atlanta, Georgia-based FSLogix for an undisclosed sum to extend the company’s virtualization capabilities and provide an even better virtualized Windows and Office experience delivered on Microsoft Azure — a mission that the start-up shared since its inception in 2012. While it isn’t clear yet how the FSLogix…
A few days ago, we talked about how mature MSIX really is (18 months away) and how it make sense for some enterprises to do a double hop over App-V to ease the transition. Today, I want to take you on a little journey that will take us three years into the future. While Access…
You might have noticed a lot of vendors in the application packaging space shouting from the rooftops that they are supporting MSIX, Microsoft’s new packaging format. Anyone who can run an automated PowerShell command to create and convert an app could technically claim MSIX support. However, it is easy to get carried away with the impression…
The internet holds a wealth of information, but sometimes it is hard to discern which information sources are reputable, helpful, and contain new insights worth the time to read the entire article — and which are just regurgitating other people’s ideas to put out content.

Today, I…

Sure, the initial overhaul is tedious, boring, costly, and takes weeks if not months. It also requires…
Since the introduction of Windows-as-a-Service, Microsoft has been actively promoting a way to create universal applications that could leverage Windows 10 platform capabilities across all Windows devices: the Universal Windows Platform. But in the past months, more and more voices declared this common application platform dead, or at least close to extinction. Today, I want…
Believe it or not, there are still more than 385 million devices in enterprise environments that are running on Windows 7 — an operating system that has already lost its mainstream support on January 13, 2015 and will now finally get cut off from extended support on January 14, 2020! While Windows 10 is estimated to catch up by November of this…
What drives you crazy at work? Is it your co-worker having every single call on speakerphone and later accusing you of eavesdropping? Cutting her fingernails during a conference call?
