Rocky Linux Now Available for Amazon WorkSpaces

Amazon WorkSpaces Personal delivers persistent virtual desktops for individual users and now you can get a personalized desktop running Rocky Linux from CIQ. This offer delivers the fastest growing Enterprise Linux distribution available, backed by the CIQ team as the foundation of your cloud desktop.

Billed at a flat monthly rate for unlimited usage or via a low monthly base fee and an hourly fee for usage, the offering includes optimizations which make Rocky Linux the friendliest out-of-the-box experience available for WorkSpaces Personal. These virtual desktops are attached to your VPC and allow developers and users to operate adjacent to the resources they’re connecting to, saving time and enabling a smooth transition from development, test, and production.

“This launch represents a deeper relationship between CIQ and AWS, and we’re excited to offer this level of experience to users of these services. We offer the best experience out of the box for customers on top of these powerful and scalable services and we’re proud to be an AWS Partner” says Arthur Tyde, SVP of Business Development at CIQ.

For customers who are looking to use the same operating system elsewhere in their AWS environment to complement their WorkSpaces, Rocky Linux from CIQ is certified for deployment on AWS and available from the AWS Marketplace, with additional commercial support and enterprise site licenses available.
