View full review »There are certain applications in media industry that we use it for which are only on either Windows or Linux platform. And we use MacBook pro for our office and laptop. So for those applications, we use Workspace.
It is easy to understand at the user interface level. The management console is very easy to use.
As per the current condition, it is easy, but we are still new to it, so we are experiencing more and need to drill down to understand the alerts, environment, and causes.

In that cloud environment, we will create one virtual machine that has the credentials for working professionals. Working users will simply need to log on to their laptops or systems. They need to connect to that particular virtual machine, the Amazon WorkSpaces virtual machine, with their own credentials. They need to do all office-related work. Everything will be inside that workspace only. Safe and secure.
View full review »We just create a computer on the cloud, then create a visual desktop VDI, and set a connection, username, and password. That user connects to the VDI machine on AWS with very limited access to a static application, and then they start to work for that company. When a company terminates the agent, it can then terminate the VDR and create a new VDR for the new agent.

Amazon WorkSpaces is a virtual desktop platform. So, instead of having your laptops, and desktops, you can have your data on the cloud. Also, it is a scalable solution. So you need not have to install the OS and update the patches. All those will be taken care of by Amazon or whoever is the public platform holding, and we don't have to worry about such things. You can access it over the webmail, or you can access all the browsers or the web client on the laptop.

So we configure Amazon WorkSpaces for them, and they download the Amazon WorkSpace client on their computer, then log in to that. The solution provides our employees with a virtual desktop environment. We use Amazon WorkSpaces as an alternative to laptops.
