About Citrix XenApp 6.5 CCA A20

When it comes to software, there are UPDATES and then there are merely...updates. One can safely assume the latter with Citrixs XenApp 6.5 release. This half-an-integer software update introduces a few new features - some youll use, many you wont - to XenApp's mature session virtualization platform. Now being minor doesnt necessarily mean 6.5 isnt important. This release includes notable new features like Instant App Access, Pre-Launch, Linger, Dynamic Datacenter Provisioning, and Receiver Storefront. The combination of these greatly improve the user experience across a range of use cases. XenApp 6.5 also adds new policy settings, an improved Migration Center, as well as introduces XenDesktops Desktop Director to XenApp environments. These are no small reasons to consider an upgrade sooner, rather than later. XenApp 6.5's release also sunsets the 1Y0-A18 exam, which was the single requirement for obtaining the CCA for XenApp 6.0. Replacing it is a new exam, with (slightly) new objectives, new questions, and a new number: 1Y0-A20. Youll learn all about that new exam, and get a useful mapping between objective sets thatll target your study onto the knowledge that matters most.
