We are going to start by discussing the core concept of a Horizon View design: the pod and block reference architecture. This provides the underpinnings to all Horizon View deployments.
The Horizon View pod and block architecture provide you with a reference architecture that can support up to 10,000 users. This is achieved by taking a modular approach to infrastructure deployment by creating separate Horizon View blocks that are designed to support up to 2,000 users each. These contain all the infrastructure components that are required to support and run those 2,000 virtual desktop machines.
The management components are also deployed as a module called the management block, as well as hosts components such as the Connection Servers and Security Servers.
The blocks then scale up in multiples of 2,000 until they reach the limit of 10,000...
