VMware Horizon core infrastructure requirements

There are a number of requirements to contemplate even before the infrastructure needs of the virtual desktops themselves are considered. These include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • OS requirements for both vSphere and Horizon components
  • Database requirements for vCenter Server, Horizon Composer, and Horizon Connection Server
  • Required Microsoft infrastructure services and components
The online VMware Compatibility Guide ( https://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php) and Product Interoperability Matrices ( https://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/sim/interop_matrix.php) maintain an up-to-date listing of supported OSes, hardware platforms, and product compatibility for all VMware products.
