Announcing Amazon WorkSpaces Core Managed Instances to simplify VDI migrations

AWS today announced Amazon WorkSpaces Core Managed Instances, simplifying virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) migrations with highly customizable instance configurations. Utilizing EC2 Managed Instances at its foundation, WorkSpaces Core can now provision resources in your AWS account, handling infrastructure lifecycle management for both persistent and non-persistent workloads. Managed Instances complement existing WorkSpaces Core pre-configured bundles by providing greater flexibility for organizations requiring specific compute, memory, or graphics configurations.

You can now use existing discounts, Savings Plans, and other features like On-Demand Capacity Reservations (ODCRs), with the operational simplicity of WorkSpaces – all within the security and governance boundaries of your AWS account. WorkSpaces Core Managed Instances is ideal for organizations migrating from on-premises VDI environments or existing AWS customers seeking enhanced cost optimization without sacrificing control over their infrastructure configurations. You can use a broad selection of instance types, including accelerated graphics instances, while your Core partner solution handles desktop and application provisioning and session management through familiar administrative tools.

Amazon WorkSpaces Core Managed Instances is available today in all AWS Regions where WorkSpaces is supported. Customers will incur standard compute costs along with an hourly fee for WorkSpaces Core. See the WorkSpaces Core pricing page for more information.
