But Upadhyay said that's not Apps On Demand's best trick – spawning apps while also tracking users' profiles and managing infrastructure is the really hard part. Microsoft makes Windows-on-Arm in VMs on Macs official – with Parallels for startersĪttaching apps to hosts in real time uses techniques similar to those that let containers spawn and work with shared OSes.Citrix spreads its Desktop as a Service across Google and Azure clouds.Arm has legs: VMware's Bitnami starts packaging apps for Graviton and Ampere.AWS targets desktop virtualization rigs with lift and shift to cloudy DaaS.The result is that users can run a population of hosts capable of handling average usage, and rely on the availability of resources in a private cloud – or cloud-bursting – to spawn additional hosts to handle peak loads. ![]() As a host reaches capacity, a new one can be spawned. VMware has therefore revisited its App Volumes app layering with a tech it has called Apps On Demand, which attaches virtual apps to hosts in real time.
