AWS is a well documented web service which allows users to accessible freely without any capacity issues at low cost. It provides security and helps to protect privacy of any data being stored. As there are many users of AWS, VDS Lagging is the main issue many of the users are facing. It helps me in privacy protection of project data and easily accessible for the files which are being stored. It's flexibility lets us to use any operating system, programming languages and web application platforms.

Workspaces are used for remotely connecting to our organization's servers and access our virtual machines from anywhere. We use this application widely in our company. It has a simple and clean UI for any user to understand. Especially during work from the home period, it has been our part of daily work life. It runs smoothly without any stutters. It's a great option for accessing virtual machines. It is fast, secure, and reliable.

Amazon WorkSpaces (VDI) allows our remote work force to access Amazon's comprehensive Virtual Desktop offerings anywhere without being limited by a fast connection or infrastructure. Amazon currently offers a large free tier offering and has made the UI much easier to navigate. This is an offering that is currently very reliable and growing rapidly. Amazon is a source for remote desktops with packages to suit an individual, small business or enterprise. The free tier is suitable for learning, an individual or small business to become well versed in AWS.

Amazon WorkSpaces is currently in an extended pilot in our organization as part of our post-COVID response to creating a "hardware device agnostic" infrastructure that does not depend on traditional hardware to enable employees to perform their computing functions normally. The goal is to be able to present any user with their full range of applications and services, as well as file, from any endpoint. The current trial involves employees in multiple departments using the service to access a virtualized Windows Desktop.

We use Amazon WorkSpaces as our Virtual Machine software of choice. Whether we use it for consultants or employees, we've found it simpler to manage and easier to roll-out than other VM services such as VMWare or Windows Remote Desktop. Hosted by AWS, this service allows us to quickly scale our virtual desktop needs.
