Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for management of virtual desktop instance pools are disclosed. A plurality of virtual desktop instances are provisioned in a pool for a client organization. The number of virtual desktop instances does not exceed a number of virtual desktop slots for the client organization. To a first client device associated with a first user, access is provided to a particular virtual desktop instance based (at least in part) on a determination that a current number of connected virtual desktop instances is less than the number. To a second client device associated with a second user, access is denied to the plurality of virtual desktop instances based (at least in part) on a determination that a current number of connected virtual desktop instances meets the number.
