While the names sound similar, these two AWS services address different requirements. Amazon WorkSpaces provides a complete cloud desktop, while Amazon WorkSpaces Applications focuses on securely delivering individual applications through AWS-managed application streaming. Amazon WorkSpaces Applications is also the service formerly known as Amazon AppStream 2.0.<\/p>\n<p>Understanding the differences between these services is important because choosing the wrong approach can increase costs, complexity, and management overhead. In this guide, we&#8217;ll explain what Amazon WorkSpaces Applications is, compare it with Amazon WorkSpaces, review common use cases, examine pricing considerations, and help you determine which AWS solution best fits your requirements.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Amazon_WorkSpaces_Applications\"><\/span>What is Amazon WorkSpaces Applications?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Amazon WorkSpaces Applications is a fully managed application streaming service from AWS. It enables organizations to stream desktop applications to users without requiring applications to be installed on endpoint devices. AWS manages the underlying infrastructure, scales resources automatically, and provides access through supported web browsers or the WorkSpaces Applications client.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\">Amazon WorkSpaces Applications:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Delivers secure application streaming.<\/li>\n<li>Allows organizations to transform traditional desktop applications into cloud-delivered services without rewriting code.<\/li>\n<li>Supports browser-based access to applications from a wide range of devices.<\/li>\n<li>Keeps applications and data within AWS while streaming only encrypted pixels to end users.<\/li>\n<li>Automatically scales infrastructure based on demand.<\/li>\n<li>Supports both application streaming and non-persistent virtual desktop delivery.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For organizations familiar with Amazon AppStream 2.0, the underlying technology remains the same. AWS has simply repositioned the service within the End User Computing portfolio and rebranded it as Amazon WorkSpaces Applications.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Amazon_WorkSpaces_Applications_Multi-Session\"><\/span>What is Amazon WorkSpaces Applications Multi-Session?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Multi-session Amazon WorkSpaces Applications allows multiple users to share a single streaming instance while accessing centrally managed Windows applications through a web browser or native client. Instead of assigning a dedicated instance to each user, Amazon WorkSpaces Applications can host multiple concurrent user sessions on the same infrastructure, helping organizations maximize resource utilization and reduce application delivery costs.<\/p>\n<p>This approach is particularly well suited for common business applications, call center environments, task workers, education, and other scenarios where many users require access to the same applications. AWS provides controls for managing session density, monitoring resource consumption, and balancing user experience with cost efficiency. Administrators can also use multi-session fleets to streamline operations, apply updates, and maintain application environments centrally.<\/p>\n<p>Multi-session WorkSpaces Applications is well-suited as a cloud alternative to many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/glossary\/on-premises\">on-premises<\/a> use cases that implemented on-prem Citrix XenApp (CVAD), or apps hosted via Microsoft RDS, as well as CAD-in-a browser like options.<\/p>\n<p>We previously wrote an article on how to make the decision to choose to use multi-session fleets for Amazon WorkSpaces Applications, see: <a class=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eginnovations.com\/blog\/amazon-appstream-2-0-multi-session-service-monitoring\/\">Amazon AppStream 2.0 Multi-session Service Monitoring | eG Innovations<\/a> (note this article references WorkSpaces Applications\u2019 previous name AppStream 2.0).<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Amazon_WorkSpaces\"><\/span>What is Amazon WorkSpaces?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Amazon WorkSpaces is AWS&#8217;s Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) offering. Rather than delivering individual applications, it provides users with an entire Windows or Linux desktop environment hosted in AWS. Users can access their cloud desktop from supported Windows, macOS, web, tablet, and mobile clients.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\">A typical Amazon WorkSpaces deployment gives users:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A full desktop environment.<\/li>\n<li>Personal applications and settings.<\/li>\n<li>User-specific storage.<\/li>\n<li>Access to corporate resources through a managed virtual desktop experience.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In simple terms, Amazon WorkSpaces delivers a complete desktop, while Amazon WorkSpaces Applications delivers specific applications.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Organizations_Compare_Amazon_WorkSpaces_and_Amazon_WorkSpaces_Applications\"><\/span>Why Organizations Compare Amazon WorkSpaces and Amazon WorkSpaces Applications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\">Many IT teams evaluating AWS end-user computing services are trying to answer questions such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Should we deploy virtual desktops or application streaming?<\/li>\n<li>Do users need a full desktop or just access to business applications?<\/li>\n<li>Which AWS solution is best for contractors and temporary workers?<\/li>\n<li>Can we reduce costs by streaming applications instead of provisioning a complete desktop?<\/li>\n<li>Which AWS service provides the best experience for remote workers?<\/li>\n<li>How can we modernize legacy Windows application delivery?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The answer depends largely on user requirements. If users only need one or two applications, providing a complete desktop may be unnecessary. On the other hand, users who spend their entire day working in multiple applications often benefit from a full desktop environment.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Amazon_WorkSpaces_vs_Amazon_WorkSpaces_Applications-_A_Comparison_Table\"><\/span>Amazon WorkSpaces vs Amazon WorkSpaces Applications- A Comparison Table<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table class=\"table_design numbers\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"head_table\">\n<td>Feature<\/td>\n<td><strong>Amazon WorkSpaces<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Amazon WorkSpaces Applications<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Primary purpose<\/td>\n<td>Cloud desktop (DaaS)<\/td>\n<td>Application streaming<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Containers<\/td>\n<td>vSphere Kubernetes Service (VKS)<\/td>\n<td>Native LXC<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HA<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Live Migration<\/td>\n<td>vMotion<\/td>\n<td>Live Migration<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>DRS<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<td>Limited equivalent<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Fault Tolerance<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<td>No direct equivalent<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>NSX<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<td>Basic SDN<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>vSAN<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<td>Ceph\/ZFS plus others (see FAQ for details)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Licensing<\/td>\n<td>Subscription<\/td>\n<td>Open source + support subscriptions<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>User experience<\/td>\n<td>Full Windows or Linux desktop<\/td>\n<td>Individual streamed applications<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Desktop persistence<\/td>\n<td>Persistent desktop environment<\/td>\n<td>Application streaming and non-persistent desktop options<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Best suited for<\/td>\n<td>Full-time desktop users<\/td>\n<td>Application delivery, seasonal users, contractors<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Browser access<\/td>\n<td>Supported<\/td>\n<td>Supported<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Infrastructure management<\/td>\n<td>AWS managed<\/td>\n<td>AWS managed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Automatic scaling<\/td>\n<td>Available<\/td>\n<td>Available<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Application installation on endpoint<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>SaaS enablement for existing Windows applications<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Non-persistent desktop delivery<\/td>\n<td>Initially via WorkSpaces Pools, but this is being deprecated.
