WorkSpaces provides users with the ability to connect to their desktops using any internet-connected device, including laptops, tablets, and smartphones.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WorkSpaces is powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and delivers a high-quality user experience with fast performance and low latency. WorkSpaces supports both Windows and Linux operating systems and provides users with access to their applications and data through a web browser or the Amazon WorkSpaces Client app.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WorkSpaces provides IT administrators with granular control over user access and security, as well as the ability to centrally manage and monitor virtual desktop usage. With Amazon WorkSpaces, businesses can provision virtual desktops for their employees in minutes without having to invest in expensive hardware or software infrastructure.<\/span><\/p><h6><b>Types of Amazon WorkSpaces Offerings<\/b><\/h6><h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are four types of Amazon WorkSpaces offerings:<\/span><\/h6><p>1. On-Demand WorkSpaces: With on-demand Amazon WorkSpaces, you pay only for the compute resources you use. You can launch a WorkSpace when you need it, and terminate it when you&#8217;re done using it. This is a good option if you don&#8217;t need a persistent virtual desktop environment.<span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-878c847 ); background-color: transparent;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-878c847 ); background-color: transparent;\">\u00a02. Reserved WorkSpaces: With reserved Amazon WorkSpaces, you pay a discounted hourly rate for the compute resources you use, making it more cost-effective over time. You can also choose to make your WorkSpace persistent so that it&#8217;s always available to you.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: inherit; background-color: transparent;\">\u00a03. Dedicated Hosts: A dedicated host is a physical server with Amazon EC2 instances that are allocated to only one customer. This option provides additional control and security for customers who have special compliance requirements or need to run mission-critical workloads<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: inherit; background-color: transparent;\">\u00a04.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-878c847 ); background-color: transparent;\">Spot Instances: Spot instances allow you to bid on unused Amazon EC2 capacity and get up to a 90% discount on the hourly price for those instances. If your bid price exceeds the current Spot price, your instance will be launched and will continue running until the Spot price goes below your bid price or there is no longer any available Spot capacity (whichever comes first).<\/span><\/p><h6><b>Benefits of an Amazon WorkSpace Cloud Desktop<\/b><\/h6><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An Amazon WorkSpace is a cloud-based virtual desktop that you can use to access your files, applications, and email from any internet-connected device.
