Design principles
As part of the design of an End User Computing solution, there are some key principles to consider towards sustainability that you can embrace and adapt with other principles alignment such as cost, performance, and operational excellence:
-
Define your end user experience: By offering EUC access to your users, you have a choice to offer different types of compute to align with each of your scenarios. In addition, based on your user personas, you can optimize the session delivery to fit each of your use case.
-
Manage with automation and tools: With a robust pipeline and tools in place in the different environments (like development, sandbox, or production), you can optimize unused resources and align the load and capacity to your unique requirements. This principle mirrors operational excellence principles.
-
Control and manage user data: Data has gravity, cost, and sustainability impacts. User profiles or application data are often a key consideration with an EUC deployment. By controlling the volume, backups, and retention policies, you can lower your sustainability impact.
-
Establish your device strategy: EUC services provided by AWS are accessible through a few types of client devices. The strategy for your end-user devices will be highly important to meet your sustainability goals.
