Desktop and Application Streaming with NICE DCV and Amazon WorkSpaces Web

Organizations of all sizes need to provide remote and hybrid workers with the tools required to do their jobs, while also improving operational efficiency and lowering cost. AWS customers can take advantage of two services to accomplish this: Amazon WorkSpaces Web and NICE DCV streaming protocol. Both provide secure access to the resources remote and hybrid workers need, while helping organizations improve operational efficiency and lower cost.

NICE DCV Streaming Protocol

The NICE DCV streaming protocol provides safe and secure desktop access to users both in the cloud and on-premises. It provides features such as accelerated 3D graphics and multimedia streaming, low latency, and compression which helps reduce network data transfers. AWS customers looking to experience the NICE DCV streaming protocol can now utilize the latest DCV AWS CloudFormation template. This template is intended for proof-of-concepts and deploys a single Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance preconfigured with DCV server ready to accept connections.

Amazon WorkSpaces Web

Amazon WorkSpaces Web is a managed, secure browser service that runs within AWS. It provides users with secure browser access to internal web sites and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications. This service is specifically built to securely access internal web sites, meaning users can access their organizations’ web sites and applications from any device with an HTML5 compatible browser, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Apple Safari. It also integrates with AWS Single Sign-On (SSO) and other identity management solutions, allowing users to securely access their work resources.
