To find the session idle status, Citrix added the Application Instances option to the Director, that can be found at the Filters option. Again, after LHC, the next feature that is reintroduced from XenApp 6.5 to FMA. One other minor new feature I would like to mention you is the return of the idle time user status, the session status that you probably know from the older AppConsole, when XenApp 6.5 was still in place. The technology also become more and more important when customers are migrating to cloud environments, when network latency or bandwidth limitations can cause session performance issue’s. Nowadays, companies are more focusing on full Cloud desktops environments, with example – XenDesktop and XenApp Essentials is coming your way – I think it is just a matter of time that EDT become more popular. This new technology reduces the network traffic bandwidth by up to 60%! The technology that is take place over UDP what reduces the amount of data that needs to be sent over the WAN network connection what also optimizes high latency sessions, including faster performance for printing and Drive Mapping data transfers. A new network session transport Citrix protocol what is in full named Enlightened Data Transport. The first (In my opinion the greatest new – not exactly new, 7.12 was already in beta) feature, is the implementation of the new HDX Adaptive Transport Technology. Not all the new 7.13 features are as innovated as always, but I took out 2 of them that I found innovated enough to highlight. Citrix just released an schedule table where all the releases (Citrix Cloud/LTSR) are listed for this year 2017. The next release will be somewhere around Synergy. This new version is the first to start for 2017 – Q1. For 2017 Citrix will bring you 2 more current releases, what makes it 3 in total. In last year, 2016, Citrix released over 4 new releases, what is pretty much. Just as every new version, it includes new features and all the fixes.

As you probably know already, Citrix just released a new Current Release version of their XenDesktop/XenApp software last week.
