Frame® customers now have early access to the new Frame SSO feature, which provides Windows® Active Directory (AD) SSO into virtual apps and desktops — all from your Frame Dashboard (Settings > Domain Settings > Frame SSO) on a per Frame Account basis.
This blog guides you through a deep-dive on this industry leading feature, how it works and how it compares to other solutions from other DaaS vendors, and why we believe Frame SSO is a game-changer.
In this blog post, we'll delve into a customer use case that showcases the advantages of reusing legacy hardware alongside modern lightweight operating systems, such as IGEL OS, Stratodesk, Unicon, and Google Chrome OS Flex. To deliver a cutting-edge virtual desktop experience to any device with just a browser, we leverage Nutanix Frame Desktop as a Service.
It's been a busy start to the new year for us at Frame! In this edition of the Frame Newsletter, we will be covering:
We are excited to announce the joint solution validation and partnership between Nutanix Frame and 10ZiG! With this announcement, 10ZiG's PeakOSâ„¢ is now validated as a Frame Ready solution and Frame is also now a fully supported DaaS solution for customers running on both 10ZiG PeakOS and Windows 10 IoT thin clients! Customers can simply leverage Frame App for Linux (PeakOSâ„¢) or Frame App for Windows (Windows 10 IoT) on their 10ZiG thin clients to provide users with seamless access to Frame-delivered Windows apps and desktops!
The Frame Education team uses public cloud infrastructure to conduct labs that demonstrate the power and capabilities of Frame. Sometimes during the course of these labs, students change the capacity settings of their Frame lab accounts to have machines running 24x7. Since these machines are in a public cloud, this can cause unnecessary and unexpected cloud expenses. To combat this, I developed a script to check all of the Frame accounts in the Frame Education customer entity and send alerts to a Slack channel if an account has a machine setup to run outside the hours of the Frame Lab. This allows the Frame instructors to identify and shutdown machines running outside of the lab's hours and shut them down. In this blog, I will go over how I used the Frame Admin API to accomplish this.

Frame is a secure cloud platform that lets customers deliver applications, desktops, and software-defined workspaces to users. We love to deliver features that provide world class security standards with focus on best practices and simplicity. Still, when we are leading a security conversation, like any other major industry vendor, we stress that security is a shared responsibility between our customers and Frame.
In this blog post, we are going to explain how we can achieve the optimal user experience and security posture in shared desktop environments. We are seeing that our customers, mostly from educational institutions, are asking this question often, since students are using shared devices (e.g., computer lab or classroom) for accessing a Frame session.
Whether you are just looking to get started with Desktop as a Service (DaaS) in your organization or you are a seasoned DaaS veteran, I highly recommend checking out the latest EUC State of the Union (2022 - 2023) white paper put together by the team (including yours truly) at DaaS Like A Pro.
It's hard to believe that another year has come and gone! As we reflect on the past 12 months, we can't help but be grateful for the success and growth we've experienced here at Frame.
