APPLICATION DEPLOYMENT AND REGISTRATION IN A MULTI-USER SYSTEM

摘要

Embodiments are directed to efficiently provisioning applications in a multi-user environment. In one scenario, an administrator computer system pre-installs at least a portion of a software application on a data image, where the software application is to be installed on a client computer system upon receiving a notification from a computer administrator. The administrator computer system receives an input from the computer administrator indicating that a specified software application pre-installed on the client computer system's data image is to be installed on the client computer system. The administrator computer system then publishes a notification to the client computer system indicating that a specified software application pre-installed on the client computer system's data image is to be installed. Upon receiving the notification, the software application is installed on the client computer system from the data image.
