App-V offers the following five server components, each of which serves a specific purpose in an App-V environment. All five server components are included in the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack (MDOP) 2015 ISO package, which can be downloaded from the [Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) subscription site](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/downloads/default.aspx#FileId=65215). You must have a MSDN subscription to download MDOP. App-V offers the following five server components, each of which serves a specific purpose in an App-V environment.

## App-V standalone deployment ## App-V standalone deployment
The App-V standalone deployment provides a good topology for a small deployment or a test environment. When you use this type of implementation, all server components are deployed to a single computer. The services and associated databases will compete for the resources on the computer that runs the App-V components. Therefore, you should not use this topology for larger deployments.
