- Deploy applications without modifying base images
- Run multiple application versions side-by-side
- Eliminate server silos and consolidate infrastructure
- Automate application deployment and updates
What you'll learn
- How to install and configure Turbo on Citrix servers
- How to deploy applications using the command line interface
- How to integrate applications with Citrix Studio
- How to automate deployments using PowerShell scripts
- How to manage multiple application versions
Prerequisites
- Citrix Virtual Apps (XenApp) environment
- Administrative access to Citrix servers
- Turbo account or organization subscription
- Network access to Turbo.net Hub
Deployment Options
Turbo offers two methods for deploying applications to Citrix:
Command Line Deployment
The command line approach provides direct control over application deployment and configuration. This method is ideal for:
- Manual deployment of specific applications
- Testing and validation
- Custom deployment configurations
- Small-scale deployments
Automated Script Deployment
The PowerShell scripts approach enables automated deployment at scale. This method is recommended for:
- Large-scale deployments
- Automated application updates
- Standardized deployment processes
- Integration with existing automation workflows
Example: Side-by-Side Application Deployment
One of the key benefits of Turbo on Citrix is the ability to run multiple application versions side-by-side on the same server. This eliminates the need for separate silos for different application versions.
Example: Multiple versions of Internet Explorer with different Java versions running simultaneously
