You’ve bet big with Amazon WorkSpaces to remove challenges managing your physical fleet of Macs and PCs. Now what? In this session, we’ll demonstrate how you can deploy a rich cloud-based Windows experience on lightweight hardware to reign in management issues, improve TCO, and be at parity with your traditional environment. We’ll take you through the client device ecosystem – from Zero to thin to Google Chrome and Chromium OS clients – and strengthen your ability to determine the right client device strategy moving forward. Live product demonstrations will be provided as we journal how customers are moving to lightweight devices, and what best practices we’ve learned along the way.
