Served desktop mode

The served desktop mode brings the benefits and familiarity of a desktop client with the convenience and advantages of a web-to-host client install.

The BlueZone emulator is initially deployed by the web server and installed on the user's machine. It is started by the user using a desktop shortcut, just like any standard desktop application. When used in conjunction with the BlueZone Session Manager, BlueZone emulation client updates can also be delivered via the web server. Or, if you prefer, served desktop can be configured so that updates are only downloaded when requested by the user.

When to use the served desktop mode

Think of the served desktop mode as a way to use a web server to automatically deploy, install, and maintain BlueZone as a standard Windows desktop application on many user workstations, without having to visit each of those workstations.
