To begin to understand the impact of these two companies’ solutions, imagine a self-service approach to onboarding and accessing corporate computing resources. Simply adding users to an organization domain, the when, where, and how an end user sets up his or her workstation and gains secure access to applications is a completely automated process requiring no operational support from IT.

In this article, we will explore how these two companies work together to ensure flexible, scalable, secure, and cost-efficient access to virtual desktops and applications while delivering:

• End-to-End Security
• Service Continuity
• Enhanced User Experience
• Cost Savings

Meeting In the Middle

IGEL and Omnissa each provide separate halves of the desktop and application delivery solution stack. Omnissa manages the secure delivery of desktops and applications, and IGEL securely connects users to their desktop and application resources.

IGEL – The Endpoint Device Solution

The IGEL solution begins with the IGEL Secure Endpoint OS (aka IGEL OS).  IGEL OS is a highly secure, fully encrypted, lightweight operating system designed specifically for accessing desktops and applications delivered by Omnissa. It provides unparalleled endpoint security through IGEL’s Preventative Security Model to ensure device integrity and improve stability while reducing its attack surface, which minimizes the risk of cyber threats like malware, ransomware, and other vulnerabilities.

IGEL includes unified management that offers centralized control of all IGEL OS-powered devices.  This is achieved through a next-generation cloud platform called IGEL Cloud Services that includes the IGEL App Portal, the IGEL Onboarding Service, Licensing, and Insights.

This combination of IGEL OS and IGEL Cloud Services provides device deployment and configuration, control over local applications, and secure access to computing resources delivered by Omnissa.

Omnissa – The Desktop and Application Service Solution

Omnissa Horizon 8 enables the creation and management of virtual desktops and applications, and it also incorporates security features like multi-factor authentication (MFA), support for smart cards, and secure tunneling through the Unified Access Gateway.

To reduce the time and complexity of desktop management and application updates, Omnissa provides streamlined deployment and automation through technologies such as Instant Clones, which enable rapid provisioning of desktops, and App Volumes, for on-demand delivery of applications.

Omnissa Workspace ONE is a support platform that integrates device management, application management, access control, and more into a unified solution.  It includes Identity and Access Management to provide secure single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA), ensuring secure access to applications.  Workspace ONE also incorporates robust security features such as conditional access policies, data loss prevention, and real-time security monitoring.

Finally, through the Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub running on an IGEL edge device, IT administrators can view and control devices in the Workspace ONE UEM Console and proactively monitor users’ workplace experience using DEX.

Putting Everything Together

With IGEL and Omnissa fully in place, a user’s initial deployment of a workstation and connection to his or her computing resources works as follows:

1. Powers up the workstation device running IGEL OS.
2. Configures the network connection, wired or wireless as required
3. Authenticates against IGEL Onboarding Service using domain credentials
   1. IGEL Onboarding Services connects to Omnissa Identity Service
   2. Multi-factor Authentication is used when required
4. The IGEL device is configured, updated, and the requisite applications (e.g. Omnissa Horizon Client, Omnissa Intelligent Hub, Zoom VDI Plugin, etc.) are automatically installed.
5. User is prompted to register the IGEL device with Workspace ONE UEM.
6. The IGEL device presents the user with Omnissa Access Login screen.
7. User logs into Omnissa Access portal using MFA as required.
8. User is automatically connected using SSO (access tokens) to Horizon Desktop using Horizon Blast protocol
   1. Desktop is automatically provisioned by Horizon management plane
9. User applications are delivered on-demand using Horizon App Volumes

After initial deployment of the workstation, future connections to the Horizon desktop and application resources begin with the Omnissa Access Login screen (Step #6 above).

Conclusion

The combination of the IGEL Secure Endpoint OS, IGEL Cloud Services, and Omnissa Horizon backed by Workspace ONE represents a powerful, cost-effective, and secure solution for delivering virtual desktops and applications. IGEL transforms everyday hardware into secure and efficient endpoints, while Omnissa provides the robust Horizon platform for accessing corporate resources from anywhere, anytime. Together, they offer enterprises a secure, manageable, and scalable VDI environment that meets the demands of a modern workforce.

Our experts, including CTO Matthias Haas, Vice President of Sales Brian Cornell, Vice President of Vertical Solutions James Millington, and Claudio Nessi, Regional Vice President, were on hand to share insights with organizations attending the event on how to manage endpoint security and cloud applications while saving money.

Some of the key takeaways our team took from the event include:

1. The elephant in the room. We all know changes are coming at VMware and that, unfortunately, people will be affected. But what was encouraging from an EUC perspective was a signaling of the continued innovation and investment in the Workspace ONE and Horizon platforms.
2. Optimizing the journey to the cloud. The multi-cloud story applies to end-user compute as well as the data center. Whether through a journey directly from on-premises deployments to DaaS, or split strategies of bursting to the cloud for additional scale or disaster recovery (DR), organizations are looking for flexibility to move between environments easily. Having an endpoint designed for simplicity that can be easily reconfigured to connect to a new desktop environment is critical to the success of these projects.

   Download our solution brief, “11 Reasons to Choose IGEL Enterprise Endpoint OS 12 for VMware Workspace ONE and Horizon 8.”

3. Endpoint security. Security has long been a benefit of virtual desktops. The ability to reboot to a clean image is instrumental in getting organizations up and running in the event of a successful attack. But the benefits of this can be lost if the endpoint doesn’t share the same reboot to clean approach. IGEL’s Preventive Security Model eliminates endpoint vulnerabilities and enables centralized management of IGEL endpoints from the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), regardless of physical location. IGEL and VMware Horizon are among the most resilient IT infrastructures to combat ransomware and other malware.
4. Partnerships. Seeing such a great turnout of partners – and friends was great. The integrations between Workspace ONE and Horizon platform and the rich partner ecosystem help our end customers deliver meaningful solutions for specific use cases, such as healthcare. IGEL’s newly announced integration with Workspace ONE Identity Services is one example of a customer-driven partnership where we delivered the right user experience to solve specific workflow issues.
5. User Experience and Cost Optimization. Digital employee experience is a hot topic for many organizations – and we agree. In fact, we’d be very appreciative if you’d take two minutes to fill out the survey we are running with our partner, LG. Ensuring simple, consistent access without delays, distractions, or security issues is core to our Secure Enterprise Endpoint OS. As budgets tighten and organizations look for ways to support innovations like DaaS, Cloud, and SaaS (and working out how to incorporate AI!), optimizing your endpoint for the cloud is a critical part of this strategy.

Long before ‘arm’ became a tech word, Skip had an arm, a good one, that made him a stellar third baseman and pitcher at Lovett High School in his hometown of Atlanta. Lovett was serendipitous. They offered an independent study type program during his sophomore year, and Skip chose computer technology. He was able to tinker with the HP 2000 and soon he and a friend realized the computer had no programs. They started writing software and wrote the accounts receivable and payable systems for the school. Skip earned money doing software through high school and used the money to help pay for tuition at Southern Methodist University. He graduated with degrees in computer science and business, earning money in a work-study program with Data General.

Skip began his post-college career at HP where he got the first hint of what end user computing would be today. HP was selling transactional based systems and dealing with end users needing access to information. He then moved to 3Com, and after a total 20 years in hardware he was ready to move back to software.

IGEL and Skip began their friendship and EUC alliance, circa 2008, when he was doing a brief stint at Citrix before spending one year at Dell, then moving to VMware. Good fortune struck when Susan Nash, a former HP colleague, invited Skip to join their VDI and Horizon team at VMware.

Skip says one of the best things about VMware and IGEL’s partnership is both are very focused on driving innovation to help their customers. He sees perfect synergy with VMware in IGEL software’s ability to help the customer gain access anywhere on any device.

Tune in and hear Skip talk about VMware’s merger with Broadcom and how he views the merging working, as well as his take on end user computing’s continued evolution. And discover what Skip’s mom learned about him during the pandemic!

On Why In-Person Still Matters. “…it’s really important to reconnect with everybody in person. …the amount of information and dialog that we can now have with our customers is so much more rich than we could ever have on Zoom.”

On Nurturing Collaboration. “One of the goals we have as a team is to get together in fun places every six months or so. …It is important to go in the office and have a collaboration session. When I go into corporate they schedule meetings with each other as well with me. So, I’m a catalyst to get people to come back and collaborate.”

On End User Compute. “…end user computing, the digital transformation, our customers need our help to get to the next level. Their employees need our help for (their) experience or their customer experience. …If you, as employers of people using technology that entices people to come work for you, that benefits you in a great way.”   Skip Gumble

For organizations using technologies and products from these two companies to deliver virtual apps and desktops to their end-users, some may be feeling a bit concerned about the future, especially in terms of how they will continue to manage and control their end-users’ digital workspaces.

The Future Requires Agility

At IGEL, we view this very recent history as further evidence that the delivery of digital workspaces to end users is continuing to evolve. That is why IGEL OS is designed for secure access to any digital workspace regardless of the products and technologies used for delivery and access. Whether it’s virtual apps, virtual desktops, web-based apps, DaaS, SaaS, multi-cloud, Citrix, VMware, Microsoft AVD/Windows 365/cloud PC, IGEL OS is the lightweight, modular, and secure Linux-based OS that is ideal for any and all of these scenarios. And any others that may emerge in the future as more and more apps and workloads move to the cloud.

Think of it this way. To access any form of cloud-delivered apps or services from your endpoint device of choice, the best option is to use an endpoint operating system that:

• Is secure from malware and other endpoint threats
• Is easy to manage and control at scale
• Enables a great end-user experience for a highly distributed workforce
• Reduces hardware capital and management and energy operating costs

As the way we all work and communicate continues to evolve over the next 5, 10, or even 20 years, organizations powering their endpoints today with IGEL OS know they already have the ideal managed endpoint OS for secure access to any digital workspace. It has been purpose-built to deliver freedom of choice and agility for a future-proofed digital workspace.

Further, for those companies currently worried about ransomware or bogged down with managing their hundreds or even many thousands of endpoints, the correct endpoint OS choice is IGEL OS. It will help IT  teams sleep better at night and make both IT and end-users more productive now and into the future. There’s no better time to discover the value of IGEL OS. It’s as easy as a simple download from IGEL.com.

VMware

VMware Horizon needs no introduction. With support for workloads that sit on vSphere (both on-premises and in the cloud) and natively in Microsoft Azure, it has been tried and trusted by the global market as one of the premier virtual app and desktop platforms. With literally millions of individual users world-wide, from critical hospital deployments and CAD engineers working on the next generation of aircraft, all the way to remote workers, VMware Horizon has been pivotal in keeping the global economy going.

Azure

The Microsoft Azure platform has grown at a phenomenal rate. By tying together all of an organization’s productivity tools with a best-of-breed IaaS platform, it is a top choice for organizations to migrate to and grow. With multiple options for deploying VMware Horizon virtual desktops and apps — including Azure VMware Solution and Azure Virtual Desktop, which includes features like multi-session Windows 10 and Windows 11 — enterprise IT teams often look to Azure as the foundation when they are tasked with innovating in the end-user computing space.

IGEL

Finally, when it comes to the endpoint, there is a choice that has been rapidly gaining market share over the past couple of years – IGEL. IGEL is one of the only purpose-built enterprise-ready OS platforms for connecting to the Digital Workspace. For organizations looking for a more secure, consistent base to connect to their workspace — whether that is DaaS, SaaS, or any mixture of applications — IGEL makes it happen.

When you bring these three solutions together, something incredible happens.

Examples from the field

Don’t take our word for it. We have plenty of examples where a joint VMware, Microsoft, and IGEL solution have delivered outstanding outcomes for our customers.

Cost Efficiency

A leading equipment manufacturer was looking to enable hybrid working for their staff. Faced with an aging PC estate and the need to move to a modern Windows OS for their applications, they selected VMware Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure as their solution of choice.

This would give them the agility to migrate to a solution that could be deployed to not only home workers, but also those workers who needed to get to multiple remote global sites. Horizon would give them a great VDI broker with a leading protocol and industry-leading application deployment capabilities, while Azure meant that they could put this solution wherever they needed it to be without having the huge upfront cost of purchasing server hardware.

Next, they started looking at modernizing their endpoint estate. Part of their requirement was to be able to use CAD software and Microsoft Teams, and it quickly became clear that replacing thousands of desktops was going to cost a lot more than initially expected, potentially threatening the feasibility of the whole project.

At this point, the VMware account team suggested that the customer consider IGEL for repurposing their endpoint estate. Using IGEL, and leveraging VMware Horizon’s capabilities with Teams optimization and rich graphics acceleration, the vast majority of that PC estate could be retained, instead running IGEL OS rather than older versions of Windows. The combined cost savings of not having to purchase new PCs, along with the reduced power costs of running a more efficient OS and avoiding device recycling costs meant that the overall project cost was now much lower, with the entire project cost being much closer to the budget originally set aside for just replacing their PC estate.

Ease of Management

When a large airline wanted to embrace a rock-solid application delivery platform, they knew which solution they preferred to deliver it.

The solution had to be reliable and trusted, while offering an excellent end-user experience. They chose VMware Horizon on Azure VMware Solution (AVS). Selecting AVS gave them the ability to move their VMware vSphere workloads seamlessly between their on-premises datacenters and Azure and an easy mechanism to extend their private datacenter to the public cloud.

For their endpoints, again, only one solution fit the bill – IGEL. With IGEL OS and its industry-leading endpoint management solution, it was simple to build an endpoint estate that could bring disparate devices together under a single, unified management plane.

Along with this manageability, IGEL OS is built from the ground up to be a more secure and reliable platform. Real-time policy updates for endpoints both on and off the corporate LAN mean that no matter where a device is globally, or which network it’s on, full visibility and configuration management is always at hand.

Security

A ransomware attack isn’t just a one-off attack. It can take days, weeks, or in some cases months to recover data and get access back into systems. In a healthcare environment, losing access to systems for a sustained period just isn’t an option.

There have been multiple very public cases of healthcare organizations falling victim to ransomware attacks and having to cancel critical operations and procedures while they struggle to recover access to their IT systems.

One large healthcare organization decided that they simply couldn’t take the risk of losing access to their systems. They decided to be proactive and secure the biggest attack vector for ransomware attacks – their endpoints.

They chose to move their end-user workloads off their physical endpoints and into a public cloud. They selected VMware Horizon 8 on Microsoft Azure VMware Solution. If the worst did happen, they could shut down large swathes of their end-user estate and restore them from backups or rebuild them much quicker than in a standard Windows-based desktop estate.

How about the endpoints themselves though? To reduce their attack surface as much as possible, the healthcare provider selected IGEL as their endpoint platform.

The IGEL platform has been designed with security at its core. With a read-only OS, real-time configuration management, and encryption as standard, the chances of compromise are drastically reduced. Coupled with VMware Horizon Cloud on Microsoft Azure, those malicious actors set on exploiting insecure environments need to look elsewhere.

Summary

With so many different end-user products in the market, it can be difficult to select technology solutions that fit together and resolve challenges across different use cases. The partnership between VMware, Microsoft, and IGEL is a solution that makes sense time and time again.

The evidence is clear. Whether you want to make your new DaaS solution financially viable, easily manage endpoints across locations and networks, or protect against threats, this combined solution has been tried and tested and is trusted by some of the world’s largest enterprises.

Sanjay – never a status quo believer – sought opportunities with companies beginning to innovate disruptive products and technology. He began as an engineer at Apple in the early days of Mac development, helped develop startup Alphablox (analytic applications) acquired by IBM; then spent eight years at SAP, as president of its platform, applications, and industries group, expanding SAP beyond its original ERP model.

Sanjay became an EUC icon after leaving SAP in 2013 and joining VMware to build its EUC business, recruiting the best of the best from Citrix, MobileIron and others to map the future in virtualization and deliver the tools to make EUC a viable choice for enterprises. Always a disruptor, Sanjay shook up the industry in 2014 with VMware’s acquisition of AirWatch, an enterprise mobile management and security provider. The $1.5 billion price tag was a startling number at that time.

IGEL and Sanjay have been strategic allies for more than a decade, as the two companies have had a common goal of growing the EUC business and delivering the best, most secure cloud workspace experience to enterprises and their end users. Tune in and hear Sanjay talk about the next wave of EUC innovation, why security is paramount and his new adventures.

On Security’s Future: “The next frontier is protecting source code…. developer security and understanding the vulnerabilities…. i.e. code used in early detection to detect disease as opposed to reacting later.”

On Breach Concerns: “It’s certainly a boardroom topic, as having economic impact when there’s a breach. But imagine a scenario very similar to what happened in Bopal in the 1980s. That type of incident could happen again through a hack. It’s not just economic impact, it’s lives too.”

On EUC Growth: “Work from anywhere is just starting to take off in a whole new way. End user computing is hot again. If you’re in sales you’re still going to be selling to the same buyers. They haven’t gone away..but they’re not just buying VDI now. They’re buying many other tools.” – Sanjay Poonen
