Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Assessment, Design and Advanced Configurations — Question 45

Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. The company has a small IT team with limited experience deploying and maintaining this type of environment.
To perform adequately, the line of business application used by the company must be hosted <10ms RTT from a backend database located within a customer- managed data center.
Which Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment best meets the needs of this organization?

Answer options

• A. Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops and Microsoft Azure workload
• B. Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Service and on-premises workload
• C. Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Service and Microsoft Azure workload
• D. Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops and on-premises workload

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Service with an on-premises workload allows the application to be hosted closely to the backend database in the customer-managed data center, ensuring the required latency is met. Options A and C involve Azure, which may introduce additional latency due to the distance from the on-premises database. Option D does not utilize the service model, which might not provide the required management and scalability benefits for a small IT team.
