What is VMware Horizon Client? VMware Horizon Client for Windows operating systems
allows you to connect to our department VMware Horizon
View virtual desktop service from the convenience of
computers located anywhere with a broadband connection.
If you are familiar with the lab located in room 1138 then
you are already familiar with the technology the View Cli-
ent is enabling you to access. The VDI (Virtual Desktop
Infrastructure) system is a desktop-centric service that
hosts user desktop environments on remote servers, which
are accessed over the network using VMware Horizon Cli-
ent. Users have full access to a virtual Windows 7 64bit
desktop preloaded with all Geographical research soft-
ware. All desktop components are virtualized which al-
lows for a highly flexible and more secure desktop. Desk-
tops can be efficiently tailored to accommodate ever
changing class and application requirements. Due to a
more centralized approach, this
model supports a more complete
desktop disaster recovery strate-
gy as all components are saved
in the data center and backed up
through redundant systems.
