This chapter provides an architecture overview and guidance for managing and scaling a VMware Horizon environment on Dell vSAN Ready Nodes.
The following figure depicts the architecture of the validated solution, which includes the network, compute and graphics, management, and storage layers. This architecture aligns with the VMware Horizon pod and block design. A pod is divided into multiple blocks. Each block is made up of one or more vSphere clusters and a vCenter Server.
