    Abstract: A computing system that provides virtual computing services may generate and manage remote computing sessions between client computing devices and virtual desktop instances hosted on the service provider's network. A computing resource instance manager may monitor connections to and disconnections from a virtual desktop instance during particular time periods, and may apply a resource management policy to determine whether and when to shut down an underlying virtualized computing resource instance following a disconnection (e.g., immediately, after some period of time, or only between certain hours). A storage volume for the virtual desktop instance may be detached during a shutdown. In response to a reconnection request, the virtualized computing resource instance (or another such instance) may be restarted and the storage volume may be reattached. The computing resource instance manager may develop a model for predicting when to shut down or restart an instance based on historical data or machine learning.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing deployment of an update to computing devices are provided. An update deployment manager determines one or more initial computing devices to receive and execute an update. The update deployment manager further monitors a set of performance metrics with respect to the initial computing devices or a collection of computing devices. The update deployment manager may modify the rate of deployment based on the monitored performance metrics. For example, the update deployment manager may select additional computing devices to receive and execute an update. Further, the update deployment manager may halt deployment of the update. Moreover, the update deployment manager may rollback the deployment of the update.

    Abstract: A streaming source sends streaming content to a display device. A camera captures images of the display device playing the streaming content and/or a user's interaction with the display device along with the displayed response to the user's interaction. The captured content is analyzed to determine, for example, image quality characteristics of the displayed content, a user experience associated with the displayed content or whether the displayed content matches an expected outcome associated with testing input. Information determined from the analysis of the captured content may be used to adjust characteristics of the streaming content, such as streaming parameters at the streaming source or configuration of the display device. A testing system may analyze the captured content to evaluate performance of the streaming system. Results of the testing may be sent to a data store and/or used to mitigate a poor user experience such as poor image quality.

    Abstract: It may be determined that a cloud desktop should be migrated from a current region. A destination region to which the cloud desktop will be migrated can be identified. A data volume of the cloud desktop may be copied from the current region to the destination region. The data volume at the current region and the data volume at the destination region may be maintained in sync during the copying. Upon completion of the copying, a current user session associated with the cloud desktop at the current region may be frozen, a current memory and processor state of the current user session may be copied to the destination region, and a second cloud desktop instance at the destination region may be started using the copied data volume and current memory and processor state. The current user session may be connected to the second cloud desktop instance.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for virtual desktop access using device-native user interfaces are disclosed. A virtual desktop instance is implemented on behalf of a user. One or more applications are installed on the virtual desktop instance and executed using a virtualized computing resource instance. Data associated with the virtual desktop instance is sent to a first user device that implements a first device platform. A first graphical user interface (GUI) for the virtual desktop interface is generated using the data and displayed on a first display of the first device. The data is sent to a second user device that implements a second device platform differing from the first device platform. A second GUI for the virtual desktop interface is generated using the data and displayed on a second display of the second device. The second GUI differs at least in part from the first GUI.
