Challenge:
The Company has multiple offices with multiple user profiles that were spread across various locations. This led to duplication of account creation and delay in provisioning. Manual provisioning was time-consuming and Asset Management was becoming a concern for the Transient workforces like Service Providers and Contingent Workers.

Solution:
The Company has built and implemented fully Automated Service; a Catalog based configurable solution to scale up/down with support for multi-region, multi-account, catering to different user personas in the enterprise. The integrated model with Active Directory, volumes encrypted for Global workspace provisioning and usage. The solution is enabled to self-heal for provisioning failures and unhealthy workspaces.

Each workspace is associated with a Virtual Private Network (VPN) and has a directory to store and manage information for your workspace and users. All directories are handled by AWS Directory Service that offers various options for authentication. The user login information is sent to an authentication gateway that forwards the traffic to the directory. Streaming traffic is triggered through the streaming gateway after that user is authenticated

Every workspace has two connected, elastic network interfaces, a management interface (eth0) and the main network interface (eth1). Main network interface, from the same subnet used by the directory has an IP address supplied by VPC. Through this, traffic can quickly enter the directory from the workspace. Security groups allocated to the primary network interface control the access to resources in the VPC.
