Citrix Workspace

Citrix Workspace Overview

September 13, 2022
Citrix Workspace is a digital workspace solution that delivers secure and unified access to
apps, desktops,
and content (resources) from anywhere, on any device. These resources can be Citrix DaaS,
content apps, local and mobile apps, SaaS and Web apps, and browser apps.
How Citrix Workspace works
Citrix Workspace aggregates and integrates Citrix Cloud services, enabling unified access to
all the
resources available to your end‑users (subscribers) in one resource location. End‑users of
Citrix
Workspace are called subscribers because you “subscribe” employees to the services you
make
available to them through their workspaces.
For an overview of the services available through Citrix Workspace, see Cloud‑hosted
services through
Citrix Workspace.
Subscribers see a complete, unified view of each resource you make available to them
through these
services in the Citrix Workspace user interface (UI). For more information on the subscriber
experience
of the Citrix Workspace UI, see Manage your workspace experience.
Subscribers access the services that you configure and enable in Workspace Configuration
either
through the browser with the Workspace URL, or through the Citrix Workspace app, which
replaces
Citrix Receiver. For more information on how users access their workspaces, visit
Workspace access.

Subscribers authenticate to their workspaces using the primary identity provider that you
configure
in Identity and Access Management and then enable in Workspace Configuration. The
subscriber
is then automatically authenticated to each cloud‑hosted service purchased for Citrix
Workspace,
which helps increase security and reduce usability challenges. For more information on
configuring
Workspace authentication, visit Secure workspaces.
Get started overview
Citrix Workspace is set up through the Citrix Cloud console, in which there’s an Identity
and Access
Management administration screen and a Citrix Workspace management interface called
Workspace
Configuration. Getting started with Citrix Workspace involves the following tasks.
1. Ensure you’re set up to implement Citrix Workspace in the Citrix Cloud console, where
you:
• Onboard to cloud‑based services.
• Assemble your deployment team.
• Configure your infrastructure and resources.
2. Define identity providers and accounts in Identity and Access Management for:
• Citrix Cloud administrators.
• Citrix Workspace subscribers.
3. Configure your workspaces in Workspace Configuration, including:
• Internal and external access.

And that’s the bottom line…
