RDS - The Complete Guide: Everything you need to know about RDS. And more.

by Cláudio Rodrigues, Freek Berson

Microsoft Remote Desktop Services, or RDS for short, is a complete platform for remote application delivery, on-premises or in the cloud. Several well-known products like Citrix XenApp, VMware Horizon and Parallels RAS use RDS as their foundation. This book covers everything you need to know to deploy a properly configured Microsoft RDS environment, based on Windows Server 2012 R2 and up, using the Remote Desktop Session Host as the platform where the users' applications will run. Deploying, managing, troubleshooting, monitoring, printing, connecting, every single item is there, explained in very detailed step-by-step guides by long time Microsoft MVPs for Remote Desktop, Cláudio Rodrigues and Freek Berson, both having deployed RDS based solutions for hundreds of customers worldwide. If you are considering migrating from Citrix or other competing products and you want to learn everything about RDS and more than that, learn it the right way, this is the book for you.
Companion books covering Windows Server 2016 RDS, Windows Server 2019 RDS and the new RD Modern Infrastructure, RDmi for short, will be available shortly after this release.

RDS was always a mystery to me since Microsoft lacks any real-world step-by-step deployment guides. I have not found anything remotely close to this book and its usefulness, I now consider myself knowledgeable on RDS. An amazing book that every Windows SysAdmin should have in their library.
