With VMware Horizon, there is no one-product-fits-all solution to meet the needs of your end users, so it is important to consider the use cases carefully and match the different use cases to the different technologies that are available within the VMware Horizon portfolio. Once you have collected key information from assessments and user interaction, you will be able to make some technology solutions around which elements of the solution are going to deliver end user requirements. Choices include whether you should deliver full VDI desktops or published desktops, and how to deliver applications with ThinApp or App Volumes. You also need to consider third-party solutions, and how they are going to integrate. These technology decisions will influence your final design.

In the following sections, we will discuss some sample scenarios and the likely technology decisions that will enable you to deliver a working solution.
