DeskStream is a leading Dynamic Virtual Desktop (DVD) platform delivers legacy Windows applications in the app store format to any device with any platform. While the installed applications are struck to the end point device for management, the app store applications are dependent on the corresponding platform for their execution. But DeskStream has found a way to execute the legacy Windows applications without requiring any installation and deliver them like app store model to Windows and non-Windows platforms. DeskStream’s DVD platform disrupts desktop computing, taking it away from traditional methods and setups. DeskStream’s DVD also brings into light desktop computing on mobile internet devices.
