Chapter 1. Imaging Concepts and Theory
In this chapter, you'll learn the concepts and best practices of Microsoft Windows imaging techniques and in doing so learn the terminology associated with deployment. You will also become familiar with the different approaches to imaging and when each approach is generally regarded as the best in show for a given scenario. Finally, you'll learn some history on how things have changed in imaging from the old Windows XP style deployment to Windows 7, Windows 8, and now Windows 10. The solutions accelerator from Microsoft, the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT), is the answer to a lot of the deployment problems facing deployment projects and will be the focus of this book.
