Publishing View Desktops from VMware Workspace 2.0

We started with a series of papers on the possibilities of publishing different types of resources to the new VMware Workspace portal, this time in the 2.0. In this initial document we will integrate VMware View desktops 6, as well as Microsoft Remote Desktop Services applications or desktops! With the final idea of centralizing all external access to our organization in a single portal in a secure way and we can publish more types of resources later!

Installing and configuring Citrix XenDesktop 4

This document shows the installation and configuration of all Citrix XenDesktop components 4.0, which is Citrix's quintessential desktop virtualization infrastructure. With this we will be able to provide our users with desktops directly, to have a thin client environment on our network. With the Citrix controller we can manage the connections to the desktops that interest us, we will be able to connect to virtual machines based on Citrix XenServer or VMware vSphere or VMware Infrastructure 3 or physical directly. Podremos unir diferentes tecnologías para la creación automática de escritorios como Citrix Provisioning Server o VMware Composer. Later we will see different ways to install the agent that will be the necessary software in the virtual desktops and the client for their final connection.
