This article mainly introduces VMware Horizon 6 knowledge, the content of the article is carefully selected and edited by the author, has a certain pertinence, and is of great significance to everyone's reference, so let's learn about VMware Horizon 6 knowledge with the author.

At present, VMware Horizon Suite is mainly composed of several enterprise products such as View,Mirage,Workspace,DaaS platform, each product solves different user needs and problems, and is several relatively independent application layer products for users to choose and use.

Horizon 6 is a centralized solution from data center to end-user computing, innovating from application delivery, data center to device-side management, storage optimization and flexible hybrid delivery to support simpler and cost-effective delivery, protection and management of enterprise desktops and applications. Under this new framework, the IT department can flexibly generate and manage Windows desktops and applications, and safely deliver applications and content in a managed security environment. At the same time, users can access and use content in multiple locations and using multiple devices, forming a good production-delivery-use system cycle. For Chinese customers, this overall solution from bottom to application, from access to management, from cost to efficiency is really popular. Personally, I don't like to choose from the market, buy relevant hardware, systems and management software, and then integrate and torture myself because I need an application.

What's New in Horizon 6

Delivering applications and virtual desktops through a unified platform-VMware Horizon 6 enables simplified management, end-user authorization, and rapid delivery of released Windows applications, RDS-based desktops and virtual desktops on any device, anywhere. These new features are built on a single platform and are a further extension of VMware Horizon View, the market-leading VDI solution. The function of publishing Windows applications is really practical and efficient. Many customers use virtual desktops 90% of the time, just a few pieces of software. What a refreshing feeling it would be to let me see only the programs I need on my virtual desktop, just like executing them locally! And companies can get more benefits from software licensing fees, so why not!

A unified workspace with easy access-with VMware Horizon 6, end users can access all applications and desktops in a unified workspace. This unified workspace enables the delivery of virtual applications, Web and SaaS applications, RDS hosted applications, and published applications from third-party platforms such as CitrixXenApp, hosted in the data center or local devices, for a single login experience. This should greatly improve the user experience of the end user. The interface is full of applications. Users do not need to care whether the application is actually running on AmazonAWS, the RDS CVM in the enterprise or the Citrix CVM at the foot of Lao Wang next door.

VMware VirtualSAN storage optimization and software-defined data center delivery-VMware Horizon 6 is optimized for software-defined data centers. The solution integrates the management of VMwareVirtual SAN and significantly reduces the storage cost of virtual desktops through local storage. With this innovation, the cost of virtual desktops in Horizon 6 is similar to that of physical desktops. This is definitely a boon for cost-sensitive small and medium-sized enterprises, and I expect virtual desktops on VSAN to expand market share rapidly.

Closed-loop management and automation-VMware Horizon 6 provides end-to-end visibility and data center-to-device automation. The new VMwarevCenter Operations for View enables performance and risk monitoring, proactive end-user experience monitoring, and in-depth diagnostics from the data center to the device in a single console. In addition, Horizon6 supports automation and self-service, supporting IT departments to address desktop and application requirements for business unit users using built-in workflows and automated infrastructure configuration. This closed-loop management and automation feature is integrated with the vCloud Automation Center Management console, making it easier for vCloudSuite customers to use Horizon 6. The head of the business unit can also monitor the use of the virtual desktop system of the department through the console, so as to better plan and control IT costs and improve the business level of the department. Employees can apply for personalized desktops on demand to improve work efficiency.

Centralized mirror management of virtual, physical and employee-owned computers-VMware provides a unified solution for centralized mirror management of virtual, physical and employee-owned computers. With the latest version of VMwareMirage,IT, administrators can design a single desktop with all the necessary operational systems and applications and provide it to end users in a department or enterprise based on their needs.

Hybrid Cloud-VMware Horizon 6 introduces a new client that seamlessly connects to virtual desktops and applications that can run comfortably in the enterprise's internal cloud, service partner cloud, or VMware vCloud Hybrid Service with a superior end-user experience. Thanks to this flexibility, users can deploy Horizon 6 through a hybrid cloud to take full advantage of the enterprise infrastructure and public cloud infrastructure to maximize their needs.

From a sales point of view, Horizon 6 is divided into Standard Edition, Advanced Edition and Enterprise Edition. The product portfolio in each version fully takes into account the needs of different types of customers, so that all types of enterprises can be tailored to their own needs, no longer unable to start in the face of many products, simplicity is beautiful!

There is still some time from publishing Horizon 6 related information on the market to users who can really buy and experience the features of Horizon 6. Let's wait patiently for the arrival of this new generation of products!
