On-Premises Component for Cloud-Hosted Workspace One Deployment

A.

In the given scenario, the customer has decided to implement Workspace One for mobile management and single-sign-on access to Horizon entitlements. Additionally, they plan to use cloud services wherever possible and have decided to use cloud-hosted Workspace One. The question asks which component must be deployed on-premises to support the scenario.

Option A: Identity Manager Identity Manager is a VMware product that provides single sign-on access to web, mobile, and Windows applications. It allows users to authenticate themselves and access resources using a single set of credentials. Identity Manager can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud. In this scenario, since the customer has decided to use cloud-hosted Workspace One, there is no requirement for Identity Manager to be deployed on-premises.

Option B: AirWatch Cloud Connector The AirWatch Cloud Connector is a component that allows communication between Workspace One and on-premises infrastructure such as Active Directory, Certificate Authorities, and Exchange. It is used when Workspace One is deployed in the cloud, and on-premises resources need to be accessed. However, in this scenario, the customer has decided to use cloud services wherever possible, which suggests that there may not be a requirement for on-premises infrastructure. Therefore, AirWatch Cloud Connector may not be required to support this scenario.

Option C: User Environment Manager User Environment Manager is a component of VMware Horizon that allows for the management of user-specific settings and configurations. It enables users to have consistent settings and configurations across devices and sessions. However, in this scenario, the customer has decided to implement Workspace One for mobile management and single-sign-on access to Horizon entitlements. There is no indication that User Environment Manager is required to support this scenario.

Option D: Identity Manager Connector Identity Manager Connector is a component that allows Identity Manager to communicate with on-premises infrastructure such as Active Directory, LDAP, and Certificate Authorities. It is used when Identity Manager is deployed in the cloud, and on-premises resources need to be accessed. In this scenario, the customer has decided to use cloud-hosted Workspace One, which means that Identity Manager Connector may be required to support this scenario. The Identity Manager Connector is responsible for syncing user accounts and entitlements from on-premises infrastructure to the cloud-hosted Workspace One.

Therefore, the correct answer to the question is Option D: Identity Manager Connector.
