Discussions about ChromeOS in the enterprise have highlighted a persistent challenge known as the "app gap," which hinders widespread adoption due to reliance on critical legacy Windows applications. Traditional Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) solutions have been cumbersome and costly, leading to subpar user experiences. Google has introduced Cameyo by Google, a first-party Virtual App Delivery (VAD) solution that addresses the legacy app gap without the complexities of traditional VDI. Cameyo delivers only the necessary applications securely to any device, either streamed in the browser or as Progressive Web Apps (PWAs), allowing users to run legacy applications alongside modern web apps. This development enables IT departments to transition their fleets to ChromeOS while maintaining access to essential Windows applications. Additionally, Cameyo integrates with Chrome Enterprise Premium, enhancing security and control over client-based applications. This solution also allows organizations to incorporate AI capabilities into legacy applications, providing a flexible path to modernization without losing past investments.

Google has launched its Cameyo Virtual App Delivery service for enterprise customers using Chrome, ChromeOS, and ChromeOS Flex. This service focuses on delivering only the necessary applications rather than a full desktop environment, providing secure access across devices. Cameyo allows enterprises to stream legacy Windows and Linux applications as Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) within the Chrome web browser, integrating seamlessly with native ChromeOS and Android applications. Google acquired Cameyo in 2023 to enhance its virtualization offerings. The service also enables the integration of Gemini AI capabilities into legacy applications, improving productivity by summarizing documents and recalling user context.
