  • Nvidia Maxine on AWS EC2 Nvidia RTX virtual workstation
    Use an Amazon AppStream 2.0 image builder. Has a NVIDIA T4 on it, fully baked hourly pricing, stop/start as you need, and convenient browser interface for accessing it. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Lightsail and RDP
    If you're looking to save money over an RDS farm and are willing to rejig a bit, you should look at Amazon AppStream 2.0, Amazon WorkSpaces, and Amazon WorkSpaces Web. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • fix security issue on AWS
    I will throw one more onto this: Pixel bastion host. You can use something like Amazon AppStream 2.0 for it. It's definitely a different user experience (pixel streaming versus directly SSHing), but does provide other benefits (like you can set clipboard to be a single direction). Source: almost 2 years ago
  • EC2 vm's in multiple locations able to talk to each other
    Also, have you considered Amazon AppStream 2.0 or Amazon WorkSpaces? Might be easier than managing your own fleet of RDP hosts, and possibly cheaper depending upon your scaling patterns (and maybe use of Elastic fleets). Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Is there such a thing as a cloud server that can function as a file server the same way as a local server?
    Https://aws.amazon.com/appstream2/ will stream the app. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • AWS Organizations and AWS SSO
    Another also not great option would be to use Amazon AppStream 2.0... You could package a browser into Elastic fleets, then use its' built-in identity, or combine Cognito with the CreateStreamingURL API to create a custom experience. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Cloud workstations: the future of remote work
    Amazon AppStream offers non-persistent desktops and apps in the cloud. It interfaces with identity and storage solutions to provide secure work environments for enterprise customers. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
  • [Help] So I'm trying to use the online free trial of Solidworks and the loading never stops. Any help?
    I was a bit surprised to learn that the trial is a bunch of shared Amazon AppStream slots: https://aws.amazon.com/appstream2/. Source: over 2 years ago
  • software shortcut on user desktop
    You could also consider AppStream2.0 but I haven’t used the service before. https://aws.amazon.com/appstream2/. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Where can I pay someone to build a custom streaming app for my personal use?
    Lol, maybe you could use Amazon AppStream, but honestly you sound really naive and I doubt you'll find what you're looking for at a price you're willing to pay. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Managed AD RDP from on-prem
    You can also use an EC2 instance if you want to RDP to something within your VPC, or use AppStream 2.0/WorkSpaces. Both are VDI products that can eliminate the need for an RDP/EC2 instance to get to RSAT. Source: over 2 years ago
  • NICE DCV
    NICE DCV is a high-performance remote display protocol that provides customers with a secure way to deliver remote desktops and application streaming from any cloud or data center to any device, over varying network conditions. With NICE DCV and Amazon EC2, customers can run graphics-intensive applications remotely on EC2 instances, and stream their user interface to simpler client machines, eliminating the need...
