Abstract: Techniques are described for preserving desktop state between login sessions in desktop computing environments. During an active login session of a desktop by a user, the system intercepts all requests to open a file and records the requested file paths. The information can be recorded locally or at a remote location, such as a server accessed over a network connection. Before the login session is terminated, the system determines all open windows and captures a screenshot of each window that is open on the desktop at the time of terminating the login session. The location of each window is also determined and recorded along with the screenshots before the session is terminated. When the user starts a new active login session at a later time, the state of the desktop is restored using the recorded file paths, screenshots and window locations.

Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein provide an approach for distributed self-served application remoting. In one embodiment, a user's own computing device, on which a remoted application runs, transmits user interface updates to a destination device which displays the updates and communicates back inputs (e.g., keyboard and mouse inputs) made at the destination device. The user may select an application for remoting by moving the application's window outside the boundaries of a desktop. This is similar to moving the application across computer screens in a multi-monitor setup and may create the illusion of a boundless desktop. In another embodiment, the user may remote the application to multiple destination devices using a “broadcast” mode. In yet another embodiment, the user may remote the application to a virtual machine.

Abstract: A system is described allowing a virtual desktop to be booted directly from a desktop image stored in a backup database without requiring content from the desktop image to be copied into the virtual disk of the virtual machine hosting the virtual desktop. The hosting virtual machine contains a synthetic virtual disk acting as a stub disk by redirecting read requests targeted for the synthetic disk from the guest operating system to corresponding locations of the storage where the desktop image is kept.

Abstract: A cloud-based system is described for producing application deltas based on application recipes that identify components of the application deltas using unique identifiers, without the recipe containing all or any content of the actual application. The application recipe can be conveyed to an organization operating on an enterprise network, where the application recipe can be matched with application files in the organization's backup storage containing copies of content of endpoint devices on the network to retrieve components identified by the recipe and produce the application delta for the application. Subsequently, the application delta can be used as an installation package to perform IT operations such as installing the application on endpoint devices.

Abstract: A desktop image management system is described that can efficiently distribute updates to virtual desktops running on host servers in a data center. The system is comprised of a central server and multiple agents, each agent installed on a virtual machine. When a VM receives an update from the central server, the files are stored in a single instance store on the host server. Corresponding stub files (empty of content) are created on the VM for each file in the single instance store. The stub files are marked to indicate that the stub file is mapped to the single instance store. When the guest operating system requests to read the stub file, the virtual disk layer of the host server detects that the requested block has been marked and fetches the content of the file from the single instance store.

Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein provide an approach for creating snapshots and reverting to the same for virtual machine (VM) guest operating systems (OSes). In one embodiment, a snapshot module in a guest OS receives blocks for a snapshot of a guest OS volume. In turn, the snapshot module creates a snapshot file in a repository external to a virtual disk of the VM, and writes the received blocks to the external repository. By storing snapshot content outside the virtual disks of VMs, disk space limitations in local VM disks can be overcome, and it is also more difficult for malicious software to modify the snapshots and infect them. To reduce storage space requirements, snapshots stored in the external repository may be deduplicated with other snapshots stored therein, including snapshots from guest OSes running in other VMs and/or a host OS on which a hosted hypervisor runs.

Abstract: A system is described for replacing the desktop image on a computing device with a network-based desktop image (e.g., a backup copy of a desktop image) while allowing the user to resume working on the computing device with the new desktop with minimal downtime. The computing device is booted directly from the backed-up desktop image on the network. After boot, the system allows the user to use the computing device with the new desktop image by directing read requests for information that is only available on the network to the desktop image on the network. Write operations are performed on the local disk of the computing device. While the user is using the computing device, the desktop image is streamed in the background and stored on the local disk.
