Amazon WorkSpaces adds support for Custom Images

Posted on: Oct 28, 2014

You can now use custom images to create images based on existing, running, WorkSpaces. The new functionality allows you to create images specially tailored to your users from running WorkSpaces and use them to launch cloud based desktops. This makes it possible to quickly build templates with software used in your organization and launch WorkSpaces for all your users. An easier to manage experience for administrators, this new functionality also makes it possible to create a more relevant experience for end users.

WorkSpaces custom images are available at no additional charge in all regions that support Amazon WorkSpaces. To get started using WorkSpaces custom images, visit the Amazon WorkSpaces website and review the images and bundles documentation.
