Overview of RDS
dinCloud’s Remote Desktop Services, dinRDS, allows users to access session-based desktops from the cloud. The terminal sessions run on your private corporate network and stream over a secure Internet connection. This allows you to deploy multi-purpose desktops for a pool of users without dedicating a virtual desktop to each person.
dinRDS is fully compatible with multiple operating systems, such as Chrome, HTML 5, Android, Mac and Linux operating systems. It can be particularly useful for users who are looking to access session-based desktops, but don’t necessarily require dedicated resources such as CPU or RAM. It can help simplify a corporate environment by removing the need for access to a corporate environment via VPN or a corporate device.
How dinRDS – Remote Desktop Services Works

Track usage and monitor/adjust your infrastructure through our centralized console. dinRDS can be quickly deployed and rolled out to users.
