windows terminal services versus remote desktop

Over the past few years, we have focused on improving management of Remote Desktop (RD) Licensing servers and entitlement through Active Directory (AD). We have time and again heard from customers that license management should focus on simplification to scale deployments. We brought innovation centered around three areas in RDS 2019 – Simplify IT management, User experience, and Improved security. RDS 2019 will give customers the opportunity to leverage fantastic enhancements that make it the optimal version of RDS, to date, with several areas of innovation to improve the administrative and client experiences. RDS 2019 is generally available with Windows Server 2019.

RDS 2019 builds on the strong foundation of RDS 2016, letting you rapidly deploy on-premises or in the cloud.

We released the newest version of Remote Desktop Services (RDS), RDS 2019, on October 2, 2018. This blog post was co-authored by Jonathan Federico, Product Marketing Manager, Desktop Virtualization and Christian Montoya, Program Manager, RDS.
