One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving authentication input, at a device, that is sent to an aggregate service device; requesting file system data, retrieved by the aggregate service device, analogous to data stored on a remote device and data stored on a cloud storage device; receiving at the device, after providing the authentication input to the aggregate service device, the file system data from the aggregate service device; and displaying, on the device, a user interface in the form of a file manager application generated from the requested file system data.

Aggregate service with user interface

One embodiment provides a method, including: sending, from a device, input from a user requesting access to data retrievable by an aggregate service device; sending, from the device, input from the user selecting, from the aggregate service device, a selection of data; and sending a distribution command; wherein the distribution command comprises information related to distributing a pointer indicating the selection of data.

Aggregate service with file sharing

One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving, from a client device, a request by a user to access an aggregate service device; authenticating, at the aggregate service device, the user to provide access to at least one remote device; providing, by the aggregate service device, data analogous to data of the at least one remote device; receiving, by the aggregate service device, a selection of data accessible by the user from the at least one remote device; and facilitating data transfer associated with the selection of data. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Aggregate service with enhanced remote device management

One embodiment provides a method, comprising: receiving, from a client device, a request by a user to access an aggregate service device; authenticating, at an aggregate service device, the user to provide access to a plurality of cloud storage accounts of the user hosted by a single cloud storage service; providing, by the aggregate service device, data analogous to data of the plurality of cloud storage accounts; receiving, by the aggregate service device, a selection of data accessible by the user from the plurality of cloud storage accounts of the user; and facilitating data transfer associated with the selection.

Aggregate service with enhanced cloud device management

Various methods for application costing to provide decision making for service provisioning are provided. One example method may comprise connecting to a web based portal environment system. The method may further comprise establishing a hypertext transfer protocol keep-alive connection with the web based portal environment system. The method may further comprise receiving a push command via the hypertext transfer protocol keep-alive connection. The method may additionally comprise executing the push command. Similar and related example methods, example apparatuses, and example computer program products are also provided.

Method and apparatus for a keep-alive push agent

Various methods for application costing based on the hardware of a client device are provided. One example method may comprise receiving a message comprising an indication of one or more hardware requirements associated with a service. The method of this example embodiment may further comprise determine one or more hardware attributes related to the one or more hardware requirements. The method of this example embodiment may further comprise evaluating whether the one or more hardware attributes satisfy the one or more hardware requirements. Similar and related example methods, example apparatuses, and example computer program products are also provided.

Method and apparatus for application costing based on client hardware

Various methods for server-side recordation and playback of a remote desktop session are provided. One example method may comprise receiving data related to a remote desktop protocol session. The method of this example embodiment may further comprise providing for storage of the data at a location other than the device associated with the remote desktop protocol client of the remote desktop protocol session. Furthermore, the method of this example embodiment may comprise receiving a request to reproduce the remote desktop protocol session. The method of this example embodiment may also comprise retrieving the data from storage. Additionally, the method of this example embodiment may comprise facilitating reproduction of at least a portion of the remote desktop protocol session based at least in part on the retrieved data. Similar and related example methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer program products are also provided.

Method and apparatus for server side remote desktop recordation and playback

Various methods for the secure exchange of private keys for authenticating a user to an RDP service are provided. One example method may comprise receiving a request comprising a session token to provide a user with access to an RDP service, and retrieving a username and password associated with the user using the session token. The method may further comprise assigning a time period of validity to the password. Furthermore, the method may comprise generating a first secret key based on user information, generating a second secret key based on the first secret key and a salt, and encrypting a packet comprising the password and the time period using the second secret key. Additionally, the method may comprise transmitting the username and encrypted packet to the device for authenticating the user with the requested RDP service. Similar and related example methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer program products are also provided.
