DROPLET COMPUTING CONTAINER APP FOR WINDOWS
Run secure, containerized legacy or modern apps on a modern Windows device
With the Droplet Computing Container App for Windows, an organization can easily take their existing Windows applications, install them into the container (no complicated packaging required), and deliver them to the end user securely. Why is this important to an organization? It may simply be that the application won’t run on a modern operating system and so the container enables older (legacy) production applications to run, allowing your organization to migrate to the newer operating systems, or a cloud-based desktop service. Or, due to the containers integrated and enhanced levels of security, you may simply need to isolate the applications from the host on which they run. Either way, Droplet Computing containers provide the ability to deliver this, simply and more importantly, in a cost-effective way.
Centralized cloud delivery, local execution:
Droplet Computing containers require very little in the form of infrastructure, as the containers are delivered to the local device using your current deployment methods. As the container runs locally there is no requirement for large back-end servers or storage, you just need a file server on which to store your ready-built container images, ready for deployment.
Enhanced end user experience:
Droplet Computing containers deliver an easy to navigate ‘app launcher’ workspace user interface, with the end users applications displayed as ’tiles’ for them to just click and run.
Simple application installation:
Installing an app into the container is a simple IT admin task. They simply point the container to the installer file for the application they want to install and follow the standard installation for that app. There is no complex packaging, sequencing, or virtualization required. It’s simply a “next, next, finish” approach.
Application isolation
Run legacy add-ons such as older versions of Java, in older versions of web browsers to allow you to continue using older applications.
Application portability:
Once containerized, applications will work across different devices, even non-Windows devices, allowing you to switch device and take your applications with you
