• 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).

• 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

• Accessing a powerful windows desktop

  Looking for a powerful windows desktop that will compile faster than my laptop, ideally a virtual desktop like Fully Managed VDI – Amazon WorkSpaces Family – Amazon Web Services. The machine needs to run windows and be able to install Quartus Intel® Quartus® Prime Lite Edition Design Software Version 20.1.1 for Windows. Source: about 1 year ago

• Delivery delays with laptops for new hires. What are my options?

  I was thinking this.. a VDI should tide them over, or an AWS workspace perhaps? https://aws.amazon.com/workspaces/. Source: over 1 year ago

• How can I run Firefox from AWS?

  Yes, that should be possible. https://aws.amazon.com/workspaces/ might be easier. But either is going to be expensive to run with a usable amount of RAM. Why are you trying to do this? Source: over 1 year ago
