DV3292 The Effective use of VMware ThinApp in Higher Education
Application Virtualization (ThinApp) should be a key component in your arsenal of tools to deliver applications.

The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) has 20 campuses, over 100,000 users/students, and the associated applications to support that entire environment. ThinApp is a key component in managing and delivering the required applications to a widely distributed faculty, staff, and student population. The ThinApp project took into consideration key issues such as software licensing and distribution, application updates, and integration with existing policies and procedures regarding application use at the University.
