VMware® End-User Computing: Design

This accelerated VMware End-User Computing: Design course, presents a methodology for designing a VMware end-user computing (EUC) solution. The design methodology includes recommendations for the types of information and data that must be gathered and analyzed to make sound design decisions for the client systems, the desktop options, the VMware vSphere® infrastructure, VMware Horizon®, VMware Horizon® Cloud ServiceTM, VMware Workspace ONE® UEM, VMware Workspace ONE® AccessTM, VMware NSX-TTM, and VMware Unified Access GatewayTM.

VMware best practices are presented for each phase of the design process. In this course, you apply your new knowledge by working with other participants to design a VMware EUC solution for a real-world project.

In just 4 days, you’ll learn to identify and assess the business objectives of the EUC environment . You’ll also learn how to:

• Interpret business drivers to create an EUC solution with the Workspace ONE and Horizon reference architecture
• Analyse potential design choices and understand VMware best practices
• Design an EUC infrastructure architecture that addresses the needs of the organization and follows VMware best practices
• Create a design that ensures availability, manageability, performance, recoverability, and security

At the end of this course, you’ll achieve your VMware End-User Computing: Design certification.

Through Firebrand’s Lecture | Lab | Review methodology, you’ll get certified at twice the speed of the traditional training and get access to courseware, learn from certified instructors, and train in a distraction-free environment.
