Bundle options for WorkSpaces Personal

Before selecting a bundle, ensure the bundle you want to select is compatible with your WorkSpaces' protocol, operating system, network, and compute type. For more information about protocols, see Protocols for Amazon WorkSpaces. For more information about networks, see Amazon WorkSpaces client network requirements.

Note

  • We recommend not exceeding a 250 ms maximum network latency for PCoIP WorkSpaces. To get the best PCoIP WorkSpaces user experience, we recommend keeping the network latency under 100 ms. When the round-trip time (RTT) exceeds 375 ms, the WorkSpaces client connection will shut down. For the best DCV user experience, we recommend keeping the RTT under 250 ms. If the RTT is between 250 ms and 400 ms, the user can access the WorkSpace, but performance will decrease significantly.

  • We recommend testing the performance of bundles you want to choose in a test environment by running and using applications that replicate your users' daily tasks.

  • BYOP (Bring Your Own Protocol) bundles are for WorkSpaces Core. The BYOP bundles provided by Amazon WorkSpaces don't have a WorkSpaces provided streaming protocol installed. You won't be able to connect using WorkSpaces clients or gateways. To understand the shared responsibility model for Amazon WorkSpaces Core, see the Technology Partner Integration Guide for Amazon WorkSpaces Core. For more information, see Amazon WorkSpaces Core.

Important

  • GraphicsPro bundle reaches end-of-life on October 31, 2025. We recommend migrating your GraphicsPro WorkSpaces to supported bundles before October 31, 2025. For more information, see Migrate a WorkSpace in WorkSpaces Personal.

  • The Graphics bundle will no longer be supported after November 30, 2023. We recommend switching to a supported GPU enabled bundle for WorkSpaces using the Graphics bundle.

  • Graphics and GraphicsPro bundles aren't currently available in the Asia Pacific (Mumbai) Region.

  • Plus applications bundles with Office 2016 or Office 2019 will no longer be supported after October 14, 2025. We recommend migrating your WorkSpaces bundles with those Office version to use Office 2021 or Office 2024. For more information, see, Manage applications in WorkSpaces Personal.

The G6 WorkSpace bundles utilize NVIDIA L4 GPUs with 3rd generation AMD EPYC (Milan) processors and are available in three variants: G6, Gr6, and G6f. The G6 WorkSpaces feature a standard 1:4 vCPU-to-memory ratio, providing balanced compute and memory resources for general graphics workloads. The Gr6 WorkSpaces offer a 1:8 vCPU-to-memory ratio, delivering double the memory per vCPU for graphics applications with higher memory requirements. The G6f WorkSpaces provide fractional GPU allocation, making them suitable for workloads that do not require full GPU processing capacity for computationally intensive operations. Refer to Amazon EC2 G6 Instances page for more information. The G6 WorkSpace bundles support all use cases that existing bundles support, such as daily tasks, data processing and analysis, audio conferencing and software development. Additionally, they enable the followiing use cases:

  • Graphic design

  • CAD/CAM (computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing)

  • Video transcoding

  • 3D rendering

  • Game streaming

  • ML (machine learning) model training and ML inference
