Welcome to WorkSpaces Manager

WorkSpaces Manager provides a full Amazon WorkSpaces management portal. Containing a user self-service and an administration portal in a browser-based environment, without using the AWS Console.

Custom Agent: The WorkSpaces Performance Monitor Agent by Nuvens collects hourly metrics on processor and memory usage, available disk space for root and user volumes, logon and logoff events, periods of inactivity, disconnect times, and more. This data helps monitor and optimize WorkSpaces performance effectively.

Overview

WorkSpaces Manager is available as a standalone product and operates with a 3-tier architecture:

1) The Back-end tier: Powered by MS-SQL, it supports various versions (Express, Web, Standard, and Enterprise) and can be deployed on AWS using either EC2 or RDS.

2) The Application tier: Known as the Management Portal, this layer utilizes .NET on a IIS web server running on Microsoft Windows.

3) The Presentation tier: This tier delivers the application interface to users. It can leverage a Microsoft Windows Web Server or an AWS Network Load Balancer, and can include DNS configuration, SSL certificate offloading, and enhanced security features such as Web Application Firewalls (WAF) or honeypots.
