Abstract

A method for providing access to a computing environment includes the step of receiving a request from a client system for an enumeration of available computing environments. Collected data regarding available computing environments are accessed. Accessed data are transmitted to a client system, the accessed data indicating to the client system each computing environment available to a user of the client system. A request is received from the client system to access one of the computing environments. A connection is established between the client system and a virtual machine hosting the requested computing environment.

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] The present application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60 / 761,674, entitled “Methods and Systems for Providing Access to a Computing Environment,” filed Jan. 24, 2006, which is incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The invention generally relates to providing access to computing environments. More particularly, the invention relates to methods and systems for establishing a connection between a client system and a virtual machine hosting a requested computing environment.BACKGROUND INFORMATION

[0003] Contemporary computer networks consist of a number of computer systems communicating with other computer systems via communication links. Typically, some of the systems are client machines and other systems are server machines. A server machine may host a variety of application programs that can be accessed and executed by client machines. When a client machine launches an application program, the execution ...
