HAQM announces DCV version 2024.0. In this latest release, NICE DCV has been renamed to HAQM DCV. The new DCV version introduces several enhancements, including support for Ubuntu 24.04 and enabling the QUIC UDP protocol by default. HAQM DCV is a high-performance remote display protocol designed to help customers securely access remote desktop or application sessions, including 3D graphics applications hosted on servers with high-performance GPUs.
HAQM DCV version 2024.0 introduces the following updates, features, and improvements:
- Renames to HAQM DCV. NICE DCV is now renamed as HAQM DCV. Additionally, HAQM has consolidated the WorkSpaces Streaming Protocol (WSP), used in HAQM WorkSpaces, with HAQM DCV. The renaming does not affect customer workloads, and there is no change to folder paths and internal tooling names.
- Supports Ubuntu 24.04, the latest LTS version of Ubuntu with the latest security patches and updates, providing improved stability and reliability. Additionally, the DCV client on Ubuntu 24.04 now natively supports Wayland, providing better performance through more efficient graphical rendering.
- Enables the QUIC UDP protocol by default, allowing end users to receive an optimized streaming experience.
- Adds the ability to blank the Linux host screen when a remote user is connected to the Linux server in a console session, preventing users physically present near the server from seeing the screen and interacting with the remote session using the input devices connected to the host.
