Xen Desktop

Citrix XenDesktop is a desktop virtualisation solution that transforms desktops and applications into a secure on-demand service available to any user, anywhere,
on any device. With XenDesktop, you can deliver individual Windows, web and SaaS applications, or full virtual
desktops, to PCs, Macs, tablets, smartphones, laptops and thin clients with a high-definition user experience.

EdgeSight

Citrix EdgeSight is implemented as an agent based solution for monitoring end user experience with either their local Windows based desktop, laptop, or a Citrix XenApp environment.
This agent transparently monitors user experience with both the computer and any applications which are run on that computer. No
modification of any application is required in order for EdgeSight to collect data. Network information is collected by the agent
from within the application performing the network access. This provides EdgeSight a unique perspective on the network
performance, and can lead to some confusion when comparing EdgeSight network metrics with those collected from other
means such as server logs or network sniffers. This document seeks to define EdgeSight network data in such
a way that this powerful perspective can be leveraged fully. In the context of this document, the following
types of user application based network data are collected for any network enabled application.

- TCP based WinSock socket data

- HTTP based web data
