RD Gateway on AWS: RD Gateway Quick Start

This is official Amazon Web Services (AWS) documentation for the Remote Desktop Gateway (RD Gateway) Quick Start. This Quick Start deploys RD Gateway on the AWS Cloud. RD Gateway uses the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) over HTTPS to establish a secure, encrypted connection between remote users and EC2 instances running Microsoft Windows, without needing to configure a virtual private network (VPN). This helps reduce the attack surface on your Windows-based instances while providing a remote administration solution for administrators. You can use the AWS CloudFormation templates included with the Quick Start to deploy a fully configured RD Gateway infrastructure in your AWS account, into a new or existing virtual private cloud (VPC). If youre deploying RD Gateway into your existing AWS infrastructure, you can choose standalone or domain-joined deployment. Review the deployment guide for architectural considerations and step-by-step deployment instructions. The deployment guide is offered here as a free Kindle book, or you can read it online or in PDF format; see https://aws.amazon.com/quickstart/architecture/rd-gateway/.
