Omnissa Horizon Migration to REST API in version 9.1.5

To streamline the data collection process, we migrated the Omnissa Horizon Server from SOAP to REST API in ControlUp Real-Time DX version 9.1.5. We integrated load balancing and throttling to ensure faster performance and data integrity, enabling you to more effectively troubleshoot issues and maintain your Horizon environment.
