Introduction

AWS Workspaces enables you to provision virtual, cloud-based Microsoft Windows or Amazon Linux desktops for your users, known as Workspaces, inside of your existing AWS account. It eliminates the need to procure and deploy hardware or install complex software. You can quickly add or remove users as your needs change. Users can access their virtual desktops from multiple devices or web browsers.


Please consider the following before initiating the ordering process:

  1. You need to have an AWS account before you can order AWS Workspace.
  2. You need to have an active directory (HBS - AWS Simple Active Directory) before you can start using AWS Workspace, so please make sure to have one before proceeding to order AWS Workspace. Please follow the process defined in the article - 01 AWS Simple Active Directory (AD) - How to order to do that.
  3. The use of AWS Workspace will incur expenses inside of your AWS account. Make sure you constantly monitor for usage and payment inside your AWS console.
  4. This is a provision-only service.


Note: Should you encounter issues with your AWS Workspace other than the deployment of the product inside your AWS console, please contact AWS customer support.
