They now consider themselves beyond traditional thin client computing with their Velma Lakes release and recent partnerships (like their partnership with ThinPrint). Stratodesk is working to be seen as more than just a thin client OS and management vendor.
They’re actively developing this feature, with Workspaces integration available already it just isn’t formally announced.

They’re also working on integrations for Amazon Workspaces and Windows Virtual Desktop. Emanuel says Stratodesk starts with the kernel and modules are added tightly on top to allow for a small compressed image that allow plug-ins to be loaded. Part of the Velma Lakes overhaul of NoTouch includes more modularization to better integrate with plug-ins. Stratodesk integrated Teradici’s PCoIP technology into NoTouch OS in late 2019. You can do that a little bit already, such as using Login with Facebook.Įxpect more plug-ins to be added in the future similar to the Teams integration, with Stratodesk working with Liquidware and Zoom, among others. This service would allow for authentication with more third-party providers. Stratodesk plans to eventually fully spin out their NoTouch Center authentication features into a cloud service, while keeping NoTouch Center local. However, Stratodesk wants to make sure you’re protected from someone modifying that cache, like changing the binary around a plug-in, such as Microsoft Teams. Thin clients store the OS image and device configuration along with some app caches, but not customer data.
Stratodesk developed this capability due to the ongoing issue with organizations regarding data compliance. One new add-on feature is disk encryption. It’s useful for NoTouch not to be located on prem so it’s not touching customer data, requiring less compliance issues. One use case example is for healthcare organizations. It can be either run on prem or from the cloud, it just depends on a customer’s needs. NoTouch Center is now fully cloud, with organizations able to choose from either Microsoft Azure or Amazon AWS as their cloud vendor. Cloud Xtension creates a secure tunnel via HTTPS so there’s no need to open your organization’s firewall or require the use of a VPN. HTML5-based shadowing also works with the new Cloud Xtension feature, which allows for Stratodesk NoTouch Center to manage devices via HTTPS for organizations with remote users. NoTouch Center serves as the hub, adding SSH tunnels on top of the VNC traffic, and also handling the key exchange. While Stratodesk already supports VNC, such as TeamViewer, now HTML5 shadowing is integrated onto their server. The most immediate change admins will notice when upgrading to Velma Lakes is that the NoTouch Center console GUI was updated into a tree view, with drag and drop capabilities.Īnother new management feature that's part of this release is HTML5-based shadowing. Like if you use NComputing in your deployments, NoTouch Center will create the proper image needed it can even create an image for custom devices. Admins use the management console to specify what version of NoTouch they want and NoTouch Center resolves this by creating the right firmware image for the different devices. When it comes to updating your devices, NoTouch Center, Stratodesk’s management platform, helps automates aspects of this.
