AppStream 2.0
       - Amazon AppStream 2.0 is a fully managed application streaming service that provides users with instant access to their desktop applications from anywhere.

AppStream 2.0 provides users access to the applications they need on the desktop device of their choice, with a responsive, fluid user experience that is indistinguishable from natively installed applications. There are no files to download and no time-consuming installations.
       - With AppStream 2.0, you can easily add your existing desktop applications to AWS and instantly start streaming them to an HTML5 compatible browser. You can maintain a single version of each of your applications, which makes application management easier. Your users always access the latest versions of their applications. Your applications run on AWS compute resources, and data is never stored on users' devices, which means they always get a high performance, secure experience. Unlike traditional on-premises solutions for desktop application streaming, AppStream 2.0 offers pay-as-you-go pricing, with no upfront investment and no infrastructure to maintain. You can scale instantly and globally, ensuring that your users always have the best possible experience.
