Introduction
HAQM DCV is a high-performance remote display protocol that provides customers with a secure way to deliver remote desktops and application streaming from any cloud or data center to any device, over varying network conditions. With HAQM DCV and HAQM EC2, customers can run graphics-intensive applications remotely on EC2 instances, and stream their user interface to simpler client machines, eliminating the need for expensive dedicated workstations. Customers across a broad range of HPC workloads use HAQM DCV for their remote visualization requirements. The HAQM DCV streaming protocol is also utilized by popular services, like HAQM Appstream 2.0, AWS Nimble Studio, and AWS RoboMaker.
There is no additional charge to use HAQM DCV on HAQM EC2. You pay only for the EC2 resources you use to run and store your workloads.
