Introduction to VMware Horizon 8: Deploy and Manage plus App Volumes Fast Track Course Learning Outcomes:
This VMware Horizon 8 Fast Track course is designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills to deploy, manage, and scale VMware Horizon 8 environments, including the integration and management of App Volumes for application delivery.
Learning Objectives and Outcomes:
Dynamic Environment Manager is a tool within VMware that helps businesses manage and personalize user settings across virtual, physical, and cloud-based desktops. It simplifies the configuration of user environments and ensures a consistent experience, regardless of where or how users access their desktops. This solution offers rapid deployment and on-the-fly adjustments to policies, enhancing user flexibility and productivity. It enables IT departments to deliver a streamlined and stable workspace that adapts as user needs and technologies evolve. Dynamic Environment Manager is especially valuable in complex VMWare Horizon deployments, ensuring that user settings are kept consistent and centrally managed.
vSphere integration involves linking multiple hardware and software components to create a unified virtualization environment managed by VMware's vSphere platform. This integration enables the consolidation of physical servers, reduces hardware costs, and enhances system scalability and performance. By efficiently managing resources and automating complex processes, vSphere integration helps organizations to optimize their IT infrastructure for better reliability and security, making it crucial for deploying virtual machines and applications effectively.
Desktop pool creation in VMware Horizon 8 involves setting up a group of virtual desktops that users can access remotely. This process is essential during a VMware Horizon deployment, allowing for centralized management and provisioning of desktop environments. The setup can range from dedicated pools, where each user gets a specific virtual desktop, to floating pools, allowing users to access any desktop available. VMware UAG (Unified Access Gateway) deployment is often part of the process, providing secure access to these desktops from outside the corporate network, enhancing the flexibility and security of remote work setups.
Virtual desktop and application infrastructure allows users to access and use desktop environments and applications hosted on centralized servers rather than on individual computers. This technology supports remote access, increases security, and enables easier management of software and updates. VMware Horizon 8 training is vital as it equips professionals with skills for efficient deployment and maintenance of this infrastructure. VMware Horizon deployment involves setting up and configuring this technology to ensure optimal performance and accessibility. VMware UAG (Unified Access Gateway) deployment further enhances secure access, particularly for remote or mobile environments, ensuring that users can safely access their virtual desktops and applications from any location.
Instant-clone technology is a feature used in VMware Horizon 8 that allows you to quickly duplicate a virtual machine while using less memory and storage. This technology is crucial during VMware Horizon deployments as it helps rapidly scale virtual desktop environments by creating clones of a master virtual desktop in seconds. These clones share virtual disks with the parent VM, which significantly reduces the amount of storage normally required. This method not only enhances deployment speeds but also reduces overall operational costs, making it ideal for dynamic and agile VDI environments where VMware UAG (Unified Access Gateway) deployment is also involved.
RDS desktops, or Remote Desktop Services desktops, are a technology that allows users to access and manage a virtual desktop environment hosted on a central server. This setup enables multiple users to operate their individual desktops remotely from various devices, improving flexibility and efficiency. Key processes such as VMware Horizon deployment, critical for setting up and managing virtual desktop infrastructures, and VMware UAG (Unified Access Gateway) deployment, essential for secure remote access, are integral to effectively implementing RDS desktops. VMware Horizon 8 training equips professionals with the necessary skills to optimize and troubleshoot this environment effectively.
Application pools in web server environments are groups of one or more URLs that are served by a worker process or set of worker processes. These pools isolate applications, allowing for individual configuration and security settings without affecting other applications within the same server. This isolation increases both the stability and availability of web applications, as crashing in one app doesn’t affect others. Each application pool can be independently started or stopped, enabling more efficient use of server resources and better management of web applications’ lifecycle.
App Volumes is a VMware technology used for managing and delivering applications in virtual desktop environments such as VMware Horizon. It packages applications into units called "volumes," which can be attached to or detached from virtual desktops instantly, without needing to modify the underlying operating system. This allows IT teams to manage applications efficiently, providing users with a personalized desktop experience while retaining centralized control. VMware Horizon 8 training often covers the deployment of App Volumes to ensure smooth VMware Horizon deployment and optimize application management within various business contexts.
Workspace ONE Access, part of VMware's digital workspace platform, manages user and device access to enterprise applications and resources. It centralizes identity management, offering a single sign-on (SSO) experience that simplifies user access across all applications — whether on-premise or cloud-based. By integrating with solutions like VMware Horizon, it enhances secure access to virtual desktops and applications, supporting seamless VMware Horizon deployment and management. This synchronization ensures that only authorized users can access sensitive corporate data, thus enhancing security while also improving user experience and productivity through streamlined access management.
The VMware Horizon 8 course equips IT professionals with skills to deploy and manage virtual desktops and applications.
