Components for VMware Horizon View
Hi Friends,
In this post I'm going to explain you, how to use de VMware Horizon View components for create a VMware VDI Solution:
VMware Horizon View has three principals components: VMware View Connection Server, VMware Security Server and VMware View Composer.
- VMware View Connection Server: This server acts as a Broker for VMware View connections, this server authenticates the users through the Microsoft Active Directory. The View Connection Server provides the following management capabilities:
- Authenticating Users
- Entitling users to specific desktops and pools.
- Assigning applications packaged with VMware ThinApp to specific desktops and pools.
- Managing local and remote dekstops sessions.
- Estabilshing secure connections between users and desktops.
- Enabling Single-Sign-On
- Setting and applying policies.
- VMware View Composer: This server is neccesary for creating a pool desktop with Linked-Clone technology; this reduces storage cost.
