Thinfinity Workspace is a virtual desktop (VDI) and virtual application (VDA) platform that runs natively on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), with no third-party hypervisor layer. It publishes Windows and Linux desktops and applications, internal web apps and files to any HTML5 browser or to native Windows, iOS and Android clients, with no VPN. The browser needs no install; the native clients add low-level USB device redirection.
How it works: a gateway, a broker and a lightweight agent on each session host. Agents connect outbound to the gateway over port 443, so session hosts need no inbound firewall rules for user access. Sign-in works with Active Directory, LDAP, SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0 or RADIUS, with built-in multi-factor authentication and role-based permissions. Session recording and audit logging, with SIEM export, support HIPAA, GDPR and PCI DSS reviews.
Linux, Java and web applications can also run as per-session containers on Kubernetes (OKE), and a REST API supports automation. Standard VDI features include multi-monitor, printing, clipboard and file transfer, USB redirection, session sharing, load balancing and high availability.
Also deploys on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, IONOS, VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox, hybrid and air-gapped networks. Licensed per concurrent user.

Compute Engine is Google's infrastructure as a service (IaaS) platform for organizations to create and run cloud-based virtual machines.
Computing infrastructure in predefined or custom machine sizes to accelerate your cloud transformation. General purpose (E2, N1, N2, N2D) machines provide a good balance of price and performance. Compute optimized (C2) machines offer high-end vCPU performance for compute-intensive workloads. Memory optimized (M2) machines offer the highest memory and are great for in-memory databases. Accelerator optimized (A2) machines are based on the A100 GPU, for very demanding applications. Integrate Compute with other Google Cloud services such as AI/ML and data analytics. Make reservations to help ensure your applications have the capacity they need as they scale. Save money just for running Compute with sustained-use discounts, and achieve greater savings when you use committed-use discounts.
