In a new blog post, Microsoft goes over Office on Demand. With Office on Demand, users can run temporary instances of popular Office 2013 productivity suite apps such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Using the Click-to-Run architecture, Microsoft was able to make this happen. "What if you could use all the powerful features of the Office applications without doing an install at all? What if you could just use the applications on demand? Whatever Windows computer you were on, you could log in to a website, run Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, and when you were done, they’d go away. How could we make that happen?" Microsoft asks in an official blog post. Using whats called "user-mode streaming", Microsoft was able to create Office on Demand. Available to Office 2013 subscribers, Office on Demand allows temporary instances of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Publisher, Visio, and Project to run temporarily on computers where they normally would not be able to install software...Further details can be found on Our Forum.
