Distributed self-served application remoting
Abstract:
Techniques disclosed herein provide an approach for distributed self-served application remoting. In one embodiment, a user's own computing device, on which a remoted application runs, transmits user interface updates to a destination device which displays the updates and communicates back inputs (e.g., keyboard and mouse inputs) made at the destination device. The user may select an application for remoting by moving the application's window outside the boundaries of a desktop. This is similar to moving the application across computer screens in a multi-monitor setup and may create the illusion of a boundless desktop. In another embodiment, the user may remote the application to multiple destination devices using a “broadcast” mode. In yet another embodiment, the user may remote the application to a virtual machine.
