What unique capability does Amazon AppStream 2.0 offer?

Amazon AppStream 2.0 is specifically designed to provide the capability to stream desktop applications directly to a web browser. This functionality allows users to access applications from various devices without needing to install them locally, thus providing flexibility and ease of use. It effectively delivers secure, instant access to applications while ensuring that the application runs on Amazon's infrastructure rather than on the user’s device, which can significantly improve performance and reduce the burden on local resources.

This feature is particularly beneficial for organizations looking to provide access to applications for their users, regardless of their location or device, enhancing mobility and collaboration. Streaming applications in this manner also supports use cases such as virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) without the complexities and costs associated with traditional VDI setups.
