In this blog, learn how to accelerate a foundational cloud deployment of NICE DCV running on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) with AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK). Customers use DCV to visualize remote workloads running on Amazon EC2 on lower powered client machines. The provided AWS CDKs cover deploying the DCV Connection Gateway […]

We are pleased to announce the NICE DCV Access Console, a simple web-based component that allows customers to centralize their DCV session management. This product complements the existing DCV Session Manager, a tool that manages the lifecycle of DCV sessions across a fleet of DCV servers. The DCV Access Console provides an out-of-the-box solution for administrators […]

We are pleased to announce that Zoom now supports optimized real-time communication for WorkSpaces Streaming Protocol (WSP) Windows-based Amazon WorkSpaces. Media Optimized Real-Time Communication (Media Optimized RTC) allows the Zoom media framework to be offloaded to the supported client for direct communication. The direct communication between the WorkSpaces client and Zoom endpoint provides a local-like […]

Workloads requiring a high-performance remote display protocol for secure access can now utilize the NICE DCV Amazon-managed component within EC2 Image Builder. Within EC2 Image Builder, Amazon-managed components offer a quick start path to get workload dependencies added to your EC2 Image Builder pipeline. This component provides an automated mechanism to add DCV to visualization […]

Customers are able to implement a custom session resolver for NICE DCV Connection Gateways using serverless AWS services. This approach provides a secure endpoint that resolves DCV connections at scale without requiring dedicated infrastructure. Administrators benefit from the built-in high availability, increase in agility, and cost optimizations offered by serverless technology. End users connecting through […]

Amazon WorkSpaces provides different options to monitor the service usage for your workload. These available metrics offer different ways to monitor your WorkSpaces connections. These metrics are all emitted at the service level, so granular in-session metrics are not available. With WorkSpaces Streaming Protocol (WSP) adopting NICE DCV as its desktop streaming mechanism, customers unlock […]

Fully managed Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) solutions have become increasingly popular in recent years. This is due to their ability to provide flexible and efficient access to remote desktop environments from anywhere. Using a managed service reduces the burden of CAPEX risks, maintenance, and costly, lengthy hardware upgrades. AWS offers fully managed End User Computing […]

NICE DCV is a high-performance remote display protocol that provides additional authentication flexibility through DCV external authentication. For a user to gain access to a secure DCV session stream, they must be authenticated against the display protocol. By default, DCV uses system authentication, which delegates authentication to the underlying operating system. With using external authentication, customers […]

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. This is an automated way to gain firsthand experience of the DCV high-performance […]

Customers ask if it is possible to optimize NICE DCV session latency with AWS Local Zones. This blog post demonstrates how to stream Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) sessions with NICE DCV from AWS Local Zones to remote users. Geospatial distance between remote end users and compute infrastructure is one of the greatest contributors […]
