What is RDS and Why Do You Need it?

Remote Desktop Services refers to a set of components of the Windows OS that allow users to remotely access graphical desktops and Windows applications. Previously known as Terminal Services in Windows Server 2008 and earlier versions, the features and functions were improved and rebranded as RDS. This Microsoft-centric remote access solution also supports remote desktop clients for mac OS, Android, and iOS devices.

Remote Desktop Services are ideal for businesses and best for the following use cases:

Need for Temporary Access

RDS is a convenient solution if your business needs remote access for short-term projects or temporary employees.

Centralised IT Control

RDS fulfils your organisation’s needs for temporary IT control by allowing your administrators to manage and monitor all user activities from a single location without flouting your organisation’s security policies.

Access to Legacy Systems

If your business works on legacy systems, you can leverage RDS hosting or managed RDS and provide remote access to your employees without upgrading or replacing your existing infrastructure.

What is RDP?

RDP, or Remote Desktop Protocol, is a protocol developed by Microsoft that allows users to connect to and control another computer or server remotely over a network. RDS works by using RDP to connect to a hosted Windows session or desktop environment.
As the UK’s largest managed RDS, BlackBox Hosting also supports businesses with RDP as a service.

What is Remote Desktop as a Service?

Remote Desktop as a Service, or RDaaS, is a wider, cloud-managed model where providers allow users to access virtual desktops or remote desktop sessions via the cloud.
Remote Desktop as a Service providers, such as BlackBox Hosting, look after managing, scaling, updating, and securing the virtual desktop infrastructure.

RDS Hosting vs Remote Desktop as a Service

Deployment

In RDS hosting, your remote desktops are hosted on a dedicated, on-premise or cloud Windows server, whereas RDaaS is on a fully managed cloud platform.

Management

RDaaS is managed, scaled, and handled by the provider while the IT team looks after the licensing, updates, and configurations in RDS hosting.

Customisation

Enjoy high customisation in RDS hosting and moderate in RDaaS.

Whether you’re looking for a host for your RDS server or someone to manage everything with managed RDS, we’re ready to support.
