Creating your Workspot Deployment depends on the initial type of deployment and the method of deployment: Workspot Enterprise Browser (Only) Deployment or Workspot Cloud Desktop and App Server Deployment.
Workspot Enterprise Browser (Only) Deployment
These deployments use the Workspot Enterprise Browser without Workspot Desktops and Application Servers. Follow the instructions in Getting Started with Workspot Enterprise Browser.
Workspot Cloud Desktop and App Server Deployment
These are the typical Workspot deployments, supporting pools of Workspot Desktops and Application Servers, either in the Cloud or on-premises.
Note: The Workspot Enterprise Browser is bundled into all Cloud deployments.
For major Clouds, we offer a semi-automated deployment using Terraform as well as manual procedures.
Find your Cloud in the sections below. Choices are Akamai, Amazon WorkSpaces Core, Azure, GCP, Nutanix, and VMware/vSphere.
Akamai Deployment

Non-Terraform deployments use the nine steps below.
1. Create Workspot Landing Zone in Public/Private Cloud
Preliminary steps to ensure your target network, whether in the Cloud or on-premises, is ready for Workspot.
2. Create Workspot Control Subscription
This step creates your Workspot subscription and performs initial configuration of Workspot Control.
3. Add Public/Private Cloud to Workspot Control
If you will be using multiple Clouds, pick one to bring up first. You can return and add the others later.
4. Prepare Workspot Infrastructure in Public/Private Cloud
Workspot deployments generally require AD integration, provided by Workspot Enterprise Connector, and an RD Gateway so end-users can use the Workspot Client to reach their Workspot desktops and applications.
Create Managed Gateways (Amazon WorkSpaces Core, Azure, GCP)
Create Unmanaged Gateways (Akamai, Nutanix, VMware/vSphere)
5. Create a Workspot Desktop Template
Templates from which Control can create desktops and application servers are configured and made available to Control here.
