Fleet Manager now enables a console-based management experience for Windows instances in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. This feature provides customers a full graphical interface to setup secure connections to and manage Windows instances. You no longer need to install additional software, set up additional servers, or open direct inbound access to ports on the instance.
Fleet Manager is a console based experience in Systems Manager that provides you with visual tools to manage your Windows, Linux, and macOS servers. Fleet Manager now provides a simple browser-based means to access Windows servers using Remote Desktop Protocol, or RDP, with security protocols. Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) connections into Windows servers are established through a few simple steps in the console providing access to your server or server-based application. With this feature, you can simultaneously open connections to multiple servers at once and access them from the same console removing the need to switch back and forth between tabs.
