Using SQL Express for the Horizon View Event and Composer databases

Submitted by RobBastiaansen on Fri, 11/01/2013 - 13:10

The purpose of this article is to explain how to use Microsoft SQL Express to create a database server for the VMware Horizon View Event Database and the Composer database. In a production environment you should use one of the supported databases (MS-SQL or Oracle). But when setting up a proof of concept or a test environment (for example for educational purposes) a SQL Express database will also suffice.
