  • Publication number: 20230105105
    Abstract: What is disclosed is incorporating a plurality of containers within a work pod, wherein the plurality of containers are associated with a corresponding plurality of applications; maintaining container versioning data and other container data for each of the plurality of containers, and work pod versioning data and other work pod data for the work pod; deploying a first instance of the work pod, wherein deployment to a desktop provides an end user with access to the corresponding plurality of applications; updating a first container of the plurality of containers within the work pod, wherein updating the first container includes an update to an application of the container; non-destructively updating container versioning data for the first container; on-destructively updating the work pod versioning data for the work pod; and deploying a second instance of the work pod, wherein deployment to the desktop provides the end user with access to the updated application.

  • Publication number: 20230047944
    Abstract: A container that manages access to protected resources using rules to intelligently manage them includes an environment having a set of software and configurations that are to be managed. A rule engine, which executes the rules, may be called reactively when software accesses protected resources. The engine uses a combination of embedded and configurable rules. It may be desirable to assign and manage rules per process, per resource (e.g. file, registry, etc.), and per user. Access rules may be altitude-specific access rules.

  • Patent number: 10021168
    Abstract: Systems and methods for pixel streaming a stream-enabled application to a client device that is executed on an intermediary client device virtualization system. Portions of a stream-enabled application are used to begin execution of the stream-enabled application on the client device virtualization system. The output of the beginning of execution of the stream-enabled application are used to generate a pixel based stream-enabled application stream. The pixel-based stream-enabled application stream is sent to the client device. User interactions in response to the display of the stream are represented in user interaction data. The user interaction is determined from the user interaction data and application execution commands are determined based on the determined user interaction. Continued execution of the stream-enabled application occurs based on the application execution commands.
