Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) has become a cornerstone of enterprise IT, enabling secure, flexible, and centrally managed desktops for employees across diverse environments. But delivering VDI at scale — while maintaining performance, reliability, and cost efficiency — requires a carefully designed foundation.
That’s where the joint solution of Omnissa Horizon and Arcfra Enterprise Cloud Platform (AECP) comes in. By pairing a market-leading VDI solution with a Gartner-recognized full-stack HCI platform, enterprises can build a next-generation VDI environment with higher performance and up to 61% cost savings compared with vSAN.
To help IT teams succeed in this journey, we’ve released a detailed technical guide — Best Practice for Deploying Omnissa Horizon on Arcfra Enterprise Cloud Platform.
