First, you define a remote connection by inputting the address of the target VM (or physical system) using the AWS connection type.
Now, apply your license to turn on the agent and you are setup for connections.Ĭhecking out the connection to the remote desktop from ThinOS is quite simple. Download and install the Teradici CAS host to set up your VM. You can purchase a license (or obtain a trial license) from Teradici. Provision a suitable desktop VM that you wish to connect with. Since connecting to Amazon Workspaces is already covered in our documentation here, let’s focus on Teradici Cloud Access Software (CAS) connections. The PCoIP-enabled ThinOS client supports all of these connections today and the process to make a connection is quite simple. With the advent of NVIDIA GPU technology powering virtual workstations, there is almost no limit to the power available from these cloud providers! Since then, Teradici has launched their All Access subscription plans that offer PCoIP connections to physical desktops, engineering workstations with Dell Tera2 PCoIP Remote Access Host Cards and powerful cloud hosted desktops from all of the major cloud providers. More recently, our ThinOS clients also support direct connection to Amazon Workspaces solution as of our 8.3 release launched back in 2016.
We have offered customers zero clients based on a hardware implementation of the PCoIP protocol, as well as software-based PCoIP clients with our ThinOS firmware solution. Given the level of interest we’ve received, I thought it would be a good idea to share what’s possible with this technology from a ThinOS based device along with some “how-to” tips and tricks to get things setup.ĭell is proud of our long history of supporting Teradici-based clients. We recently received numerous requests and questions about using ThinOS to access cloud resources directly from the terminal environment using the Teradici Cloud Access Software (CAS) solution.įor those not familiar with PC-over-IP (PCoIP), it delivers remote access to computers and virtual machines using a secure, high-definition and highly responsive connection protocol.
