Summary


In this chapter, you were introduced to App Volumes Broker Integration Service for VMware Horizon View.

We started by looking at the architecture with respect to how it works, before going on to install it on Horizon View Connection Server in the Example Lab.

Finally, we created a desktop pool and demonstrated the feature in action.

In the next chapter, we will look at how to integrate App Volumes with Citrix XenDesktop.
