Amazon WorkSpaces Applications introduces unified graphics images

Amazon WorkSpaces Applications announces unified graphics images, a single image type compatible with all supported graphics instance families including G4dn, G5, G6, and G7.

• One image works across all supported GPU instance families instead of requiring separate images per generation
• Simplifies image management and enables easier adoption of newer GPU generations
• Console displays all compatible instance types for optimal price and performance selection
• Fleets can change instance types across supported families using console or UpdateFleet API
• Available in all AWS commercial and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions
• Upgrade existing graphics images via Managed Image Update or launch from unified base image

Unified graphics images reduce operational complexity and provide greater flexibility for managing GPU-based workspaces across different instance generations.
