We are very excited to announce the availability of a public beta of VMware Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure. Since we announced our intent to deliver this solution in May, we received tremendous interest from prospective customers. In fact, we received so many inquiries that we expanded our private beta into a public beta.
With a public beta, organizations like yours can pair your existing Microsoft Azure infrastructure with the intuitive Horizon Cloud control plane to create a secure, comprehensive cloud-hosted solution for delivering virtualized Windows applications and session desktops.
Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure is designed to help organizations transform Windows applications into software-as-a-service (SaaS) to eliminate the burden of managing physical infrastructure and move to a SaaS model as part of your journey to a unified digital workspace.
We certainly think that the time has come for a powerful solution like this—and so do many of our current beta customers. Check out what they have to say.
“VMware and Microsoft Azure offer the ability to deliver applications in the cloud will allow us to continue to stay flexible to deliver the services that our customers and partners expect.”
—Technical Architect for store and corporate user computing in a large U.S. pharmacy chain looking for desktop virtualization
“I think Horizon Cloud is the way to go … Great evolution of moving in this direction.”
—Solutions Architect for a healthcare company migrating from on-premises to the cloud
