vSphere Edge Deployments

Using Horizon Cloud, you can create and deploy a Horizon Edge for the vSphere capacity type.

To deploy edges from Horizon Cloud in vSphere, you must set up your Horizon Cloud environment as described in the following sections and redeem the Horizon Cloud Welcome email sent to the administrator account.

For information about redeeming the Horizon Cloud Welcome email, see Onboarding to Horizon Cloud.

To configure an Identity Provider, see Identity and Access Management in Horizon Cloud.

The Horizon Edge architecture for the vSphere capacity type within Horizon Cloud is shown below.
