Much content was recently released via Lync optimization.
Many of my clients are interested in to get clear guidance from Citrix best how Lync to implement in their XenApp and XenDesktop deployments and optimize. In this blog I have tried to collect it all together and in a form which makes this product successfully deploy sense to help.

, to determine the feature matrix which optimization technology is best for your environment. One of the most important decisions will be client operating system support here. If you have Windows on your client devices, then you can select one of four options. If you need to support other operating systems, you can not use the Microsoft Lync VDI plug-in use or HDX Local App Access
Citrix option. 1 - Generic HDX
If we say that we can optimize Lync say with "Generic HDX" that we are not listed a specific optimization options below. Instead, we rely on the efficiency of the standard ICA / HDX protocol, the audio and video (and the usual screen and keyboard) to compress traffic.
There are a lot of good technology built in HDX so it can be very efficient. If you want this read about the (many) options more created for the configuration I recommend this great blog post by my fellow TRMs here read: / blogs / 10.22.2014 / what-new-with-HDX display -in-XenDesktop xenapp-7-x /
"Generic HDX", a lot of good work to do with audio and video data compression, and has the best client compatibility, as no special components (other than receiver) must present on the client device. The downside is that all processing will be performed in the data center to limit scalability, and this option does not solve the problem hairpin
Citrix Option 2 -. HDX Local App Access
HDX Local App Access is a feature of XenApp 6.5 and XenDesktop 7.x which can complete Lync application (executable files and multimedia) on the client device be carried out with the application UI overlaying with a hosted desktop session. This is potentially very useful because we can move fully the requirements for the processing of Lync from the datacenter to the client device ... as long as the client device is running the Windows operating system.
HDX Local App Access required platinum licensing so will not be an option for any environment.
HDX Local App Access has been added as a feature of XenApp 6.5 with the release of Feature Pack 2. You can read more about this feature here: http://support.citrix.com/proddocs/topic/xenapp65fp2-w2k8/ps-csp-rs-intro-wrapper.html
