At the time of this writing, Horizon Cloud – next-gen supports Microsoft Azure subscriptions for resource capacity.
Resource capacity : Resource providers are VMware-supported hypervisors and cloud platforms that provide the necessary resource capacity to deliver desktops and applications to end users. DaaS management infrastructure : VMware has got you covered with respect to managing the VDI infrastructure services, app-packaging services, connection brokering service, edge gateways, databases, and so on. The difference is that Horizon Cloud – next-gen is a DaaS (desktop-as-a-service) solution, meaning that VMware delivers and maintains all the critical management tools.Īdmins need concern themselves only with managing the virtual apps and desktops. Devices can include Windows, Mac, and Linux desktop computers and laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, smartphones, and thin and zero clients. Like SDDC (software-defined datacenter)-based VMware Horizon®, VMware Horizon® Cloud Service™- next-gen delivers virtualized Windows desktops and apps to just about any endpoint device you can think of.
