A system for providing virtual applications from a remote based system based on native applications. A front end is configured to receive applications. A sequencer is configured to receive the applications from the front end and sequence the applications into virtual applications streamable to clients by the front end. This includes at least: sequencing a particular application of the received applications into a virtual application using a virtual machine; subsequent to sequencing the particular application, marking the virtual machine in a manner that causes the virtual machine to be reimaged prior to being used to sequence an additional application; and based on the marking, causing the virtual machine to be reimaged.

Systems and methods for using virtual machines to sequence native applications into virtual packages and for reimaging virtual machines

Providing virtual applications from a remote based system based on native applications. A method includes, at a remote based system, receiving a native application from an on-premises system remote from the remote based system. The method further includes at the remote based system, sequencing the native application into a virtual application. The method further includes providing the virtual application to a system different than the remote based system.

When a request is received to execute a virtualized application, an application virtualization client component evaluates an execution policy to determine if the application may be executed. If the application virtualization client component determines based on the execution policy that the virtualized application may be executed, the application virtualization client component publishes the virtualized application. The application virtualization client component publishes the application by making the virtualized application available for execution if the application is installed, and installing the virtualized application if it is not installed. The application virtualization client component also evaluates the execution policy during execution of the virtualized application. If the application virtualization client component determines that the execution policy is no longer satisfied, the application virtualization client component unpublishes the virtualized application, thereby preventing execution of the virtualized application.

Policy-based access to virtualized applications

A library operating system is employed in conjunction with an application in a virtual environment to facilitate dynamic application migration. An application executing in a virtual environment with a library operating system on a first machine can be suspended, and application state can be captured. Subsequently, the state can be restored and execution resumed on the first machine or a second machine.
