Introduction to the Horizon Cloud Services Advanced Integration Labs

Welcome to the EUC Livefire: Horizon Cloud Services Advanced Integration session. The scenario you will be working on this week is a company called EUC-Livefire. They are a very dynamic Organization and have traditionally been an in house Organization that has been required to get all their users to work from home. They need a secure solution that offers a user experience on par with working in the office.

Manageability and ease of access is a key requirement

During this course, you will be integrating the following solutions with Horizon Cloud Services Control Plane. These will include two on-premises  VMware Horizon PODS. Access to will be delivered using VMware NSX-AVI and VMware Unified Access Gateway.

We will look at the integration of Workspace ONE Access, Workspace ONE Hub services and Workspace ONE UEM and how we can move away from Password based authentication

In addition to  securing access we will also look at how we can manage the user experience when a user logs in to their VMware Horizon Desktop and then possibly logs in to their windows 10 laptop afterwards. We will look at how VMware Dynamic Environment Manager now integrates with Workspace ONE UEM , Workspace ONE Intelligence and Microsoft OneDrive

On your Laptop or Desktop

  • Create a dummy email account with a fictitious name
    • This will be helpful when you do your Azure lab on Day 4.
      • The Developer account has to have a unique email and phone number that is not associated with any other Azure Accounts.
      • If either are associated with another Azure account you might not be able to register
    • Go to GMAIL.com  and create yourself a fictitious account.
  • In your Document sheet.
    • Do not forget to document your account and URL information

The objective of this chapter is to introduce to class resources.

It is imperative that you document your urls and also fulfil certain pre-requisite work before you start with regular lab

Failure to complete this chapter will result in you not being to able to complete certain labs going forward
