That said, our entire raison d’être here at Octopus Deploy is to make it so that a typical deployment involves no remote desktop whatsoever. Remote desktop tools are essential for diagnostics and some configuration tasks there's no denying it. Octopus Deploy is a remote desktop alternative in the same way that TeamCity/Team Build is a Visual Studio alternative. Never fear, RoyalTS is here.Īnother open source tabbed session manager, but it looks to be actively developed, and the source code is in C#! I’m not sure who forgot to tell the UX team on Windows that people don’t normally run Windows Server 2012 on tablets, but I’m sure they had a reason for making it nigh impossible to launch programs over remote desktop. RoyalTS is a very nice looking commercial alternative and has a killer feature: a button that lets you click “Start” remotely. The Octopus team is distributed, so we save the mRemoteNG settings file in Dropbox so that everyone on the team can use them to easily connect to any of our VMs.
mRemoteNGĪn open source fork of mRemote, this is the tool we currently use. The only feature it lacks is that it can’t save credentials for a remote desktop gateway. It can save credentials if you like and is great for sharing connections between teammates. It’s a great option supporting multiple platforms, the ability to save passwords etc. Microsoft have updated their Remote Desktop client, and it now supports Windows, Android, iOS, and macOS. The following list of tools helps you manage multiple remote desktop sessions at once. This means we’re seldom in a single remote desktop session at once. Nowadays, virtualization and cloud computing mean that instead of one server running many applications, we have one server, running many virtual servers, each with a single application. An IIS server with a dozen sites or applications wasn’t just common, it was the standard. In the olden days, when ships were made of wood and men of steel, we’d have a couple of servers and run as many applications as we could on them. If you build applications to run on Windows servers, and you are involved in deployments, it’s quite likely that you’ll be spending time in remote desktop.
