    NICE DCV offers end users a wide range of client devices, including native clients for Windows, Linux, and MacOS operating systems. Native clients support up to 4 monitors at 4K resolution each and the Windows client also supports USB redirection for 3D mice and USB storage devices. In addition, NICE DCV helps customers with remote Linux desktops to reduce session costs by supporting multiple simultaneous full-performant 3D Linux sessions from one high performance GPU server.

    Amazon Machine Image (AMI)

    An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

    Version release notes

    Includes NICE DCV 2023.1-16388 with redirection of in-session WebAuthN requests, other new features and patches. More information can be found here: https://www.ni-sp.com/9-11-2023-nice-releases-dcv-2023-1-including-new-features/ 

    Additional details

    Usage instructions

    1. Make sure the instance security groups allow inbound traffic to TCP port 8443 and 22 (optionally UDP port 8443).
    2. Configure the instance to have the role to access the license file as per https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dcv/latest/adminguide/setting-up-license.html 
    3. Connect to your remote machine with ssh -i centos@
    4. Set the password for the user "centos" with sudo passwd centos. This is the password you will use to log in to DCV.
    5. Create a DCV virtual session using the command 'dcv create-session --storage-root %home% session1' including file transfer support, 'session1' is the session name (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dcv/latest/adminguide/managing-sessions.html )
    6. Connect to your remote machine with the NICE DCV native client or web client using https://<public_dns>:8443

    Please note: you can start different concurrent remote desktop sessions for multiple users which makes DCV a very efficient remote desktop technology efficiently sharing the GPU and other resources among user sessions.

    To connect via QUIC/UDP for highly interactive remote desktop experience and in case of difficult network conditions please see our online user guide. With DCV 2021 and later QUIC/UDP will be used by default together with the DCV client. In the DCV client connection settings you can select TCP as well.

    Please be careful with upgrading the kernel as it might cause issues with the nVidia driver.
