Integrating Application Pools with VMware Cloud POD Architecture

We will enable VMware Cloud Pod Architecture Published Applications and Integrate it with Workspace ONE Access

Part 1. Configuring Global Entitlements for the Multi-session Assignments

In a multi-site setup, USABILITY of Enterprise applications can be critical. Users require a seamless user experience. As part of Cloud Pod Architecture we are able to setup Global Entitlements that give administrators the ability, to entitle users to Applications and Desktops in a multi-site scenario. This makes the application more USABLE in an Enterprise.

We will fulfill the first steps in setting up a multi-site solution
