Abstract: User software applications (apps) are the lifeblood of a media professional: creating, capturing, scheduling, logging, searching, editing, reviewing, managing, publishing, and more. The common desktop installable program (.EXE) is being eclipsed by new methods of application deployment. Web methods, virtualization techniques, and cloud computing are enabling new ways to develop and deploy application with outstanding value for end users and administrators. Of special importance are advantages gained in the areas of performance, simplicity, access patterns, software distribution, upgrades, and configuration management. This paper surveys the landscape of software application methods, including rich internet application using browsers or sandboxed app players, hosted desktop virtualization, application streaming, and native apps for tablets/phones.
