The Plan and Design for View service provides a comprehensive architectural design for VMware View. This service takes elements from a foundational VMware Infrastructure (VI) architecture and extends and adapts the design to support virtual desktop workloads.

The Plan and Design for View service is applicable for customers who presently have and use VMware Infrastructure as well as for those who do not yet have VMware Infrastructure implemented. In either case, VMware recommends the completion of a Plan and Design for VI engagement prior or as part of a View engagement service, as virtual desktops require a sound VI architecture as the foundation for a View solution.

If you have already invested in Plan and Design for VI, then it is strongly recommended that your organisation/company invest in a VMware Health Check engagement prior to starting a Plan and Design for View.

The scope of a typical Plan and Design for View engagement includes the following:

• Pre-engagement project preparation
• Engagement kickoff
• Workload sizing estimation
• Design enablement knowledge transfer session(s)
• Requirements gathering activities
• Detailed design sessions and customer deliverables creation
• Presentation/review of customer deliverables
• Project wrap-up with identification of next steps
