Description

Desktop virtualization can be a bit of a headache. But VMware Horizon 7 changes all that. With a rich and adaptive UX, improved security and a range of useful features for storage and networking optimization, there’s plenty to love. But to properly fall in love with it, you need to know how to use it. And that means venturing deeper into the software, taking advantage of its extensive range of features, many of which are underused and underpromoted. This guide will take you through everything you need to know to not only successfully virtualize your desktop infrastructure but also to maintain and optimize the infrastructure to keep all your users happy. We’ll show you how to assess and analyze your infrastructure, and how to use that analysis to design a solution that meets your organizational and user needs. Once you’ve done that, you’ll find out how to build your virtualized environment, before deploying your virtualized solution. But more than that, we’ll also make sure you know everything you need to know about the full range of features on offer, including mobile cloud, so you can use them to take full control of your virtualized infrastructure.

Who is this book for?

Admins, architects… whatever your role, if you find virtualization a bit of a headache this book is for you. You’ll go deep into VMware Horizon and see just what its capable of. It will take you to an advanced level, but at a pace that ensures you’re always solving real-world problems. You’ll need some experience in desktop management using Windows and Microsoft Office, and familiarity with Active Directory, SQL, Windows Remote Desktop Session Hosting, and VMware vSphere technology.

Peter's book is a great complement to Jason Ventresco's more implementation focused book on Horizon View 7, which constitutes a very well laid out step-by-step guide to implementing Horizon View.This book takes more of a bird eye's view and includes many high-level and design-oriented aspects and can provide a valuable guidance towards implementing a sound Horizon View infrastructure. I recommend this book (ideally in conjunction with Jason's more step-by-step-based book) for anyone dealing with VMware Horizon 7. With more than 650 pages packed with implementation guidance and knowledge, it's definitely a must-read book on Horizon 7.

This book really helped in upgrading a VMware Horizon deployment, which was essentially a rebuild. I still use it as a reference. It's not a book that you read once or twice and never reference.

VDIに携わる、管理者、開発者には最高の一冊。日本語版がないのが非常に残念ですが、読みやすい英語なので必要な部分をかいつまんで読んでもよいと思います。ハイレベルな設計から実装までカバーしています。

Excellent book, will recommend it to anyone trying to learn Horizon View. The author gives you a high level overview of VDI, how to approach and plan a project as well as how to deploy it and administer it. Great book.

The book had overall good information, slightly outdated to a degree. Though the reason I knocked a whole star off is because of the number of grammatical issues and weird unicode issues in the print. The grammar is not as abundant as the weird symbols. Refer to my picture for example. This happens quite a bit throughout the book and it definitely needs to be addressed.
