Windows Desktop Access
Overview
A Remote Windows Desktop is any computer, physical or virtual, that runs Microsoft Windows operating system (Windows Server 2012 R2 / Windows 10 or newer), resides on a company's private network, and can be accessed over Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). The private network can be on-premises as well as in the cloud: AWS, Azure, Google Cloud etc.
