This section describes how to install and activate the HCX component appliances: HCX Connector and HCX Cloud .

The HCX appliances work together to provide HCX Advanced and Enterprise services. In cloud-to-cloud environments, you deploy HCX Cloud at both the source and the destination sites. In legacy vSphere-to-cloud (private or public) deployments, you install HCX Connector at your on-premises or legacy site and HCX Cloud at the destination cloud site.
