Perhaps try Ruben Spruijt's Application Virtualisation smackdown whitepaper :

Is there any place to get information that isn't biased by vmware or citrix? I'm wondering if I should be jumping on this before they get too far down this road. Does it make sense to go with another virtualization app tech if you already have sccm in place? (currently 2007 r2 but will be moving to 2012 soon) ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jason Wallace Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2013 2:02 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [mssms] RE: sccm virtualize and intergration. John SCCM has no inbuilt mechanism to handle VMWare View applications. The only inte(r)gration functionality within SCCM 2012 for virtualised applications may be found with App-V. I don't believe that VMWare has a 99% market share in anything. In fact, seeing as VMWare has recently been actively recruiting Hyper-V engineers I doubt even whether VMWare has a 99% market share at VMWare. I don't know how VMWare View deploys applications but I suspect that you will need to use their own infrastructure to deliver applications. As far then for reporting upon those applications unless VMWare are utilising the same WMI repositories that Microsoft do for their App-V application deployment then you will not have integrated reporting on your application estate.

Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2013 16:51:19 +0000 I was referring to application virtualization and deploying those virtual apps. I know sccm has virtual applications intergrated in - but it looks like they are going with the vmware option. Does that aspect of it intergrate wtih sccm or would you just use VMware and AD integration and stop deploying apps with sccm? ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dzikowski, Michael Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2013 1:36 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] RE: sccm virtualize and intergration. 99% of market share? That's funny You certainly can virtualize your site server and roles. But that totally depends on several variables with your site, systems, etc. Microsoft has 100% certified VMware as a virtualization platform. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg682077.aspx#BKMK_SupConfigVirtualization Mike D- From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Burke, John Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2013 12:25 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] sccm virtualize and intergration. I got pulled into a meeting and they stated they are most likely going with the vmware tech. They stated that they have 99% of the market share. Is that true? How well does vmware intergrate with sccm? === STEMCOR CONFIDENTIALITY AND DISCLAIMER NOTICE This e-mail is intended only for the addressees named in it.
