Computing system providing cloud-based user profile management for virtual sessions and related methods
First Claim
1. A computing system comprising:
- a virtualization server configured torun virtual sessions for a plurality of different client devices, each virtual session having a respective user profile associated therewith, andmaintain a respective unique access token associated with each user profile separate from the client devices; and
a cloud computing service configured tostore the user profiles,receive access tokens from the virtualization server upon initiation of virtual sessions associated with respective user profiles, and provide the user profiles to the virtualization server responsive thereto, andcooperate with the virtualization server to synchronize changes in the user profiles responsive to the user sessions based upon the respective access tokens;
wherein the virtualization server comprises a virtual session controller to assign the virtual sessions to the client devices and a virtual session agent to run the virtual sessions for respective client devices, and wherein the virtual session controller operates as a relay between the virtual session agent and a multi-tenant cloud service to retrieve the access tokens.
