Booking.com uses Amazon Workspaces as a Virtual Desktop (VDI) solution. It allows you to securely access the Booking.com work environment from your personal computer.
Simply put, you will install a piece of software on your computer that after logging in with your Booking.com credentials will give you access to a Virtual Desktop without having to connect to VPN separately. From here you can securely access all tools that you need to do your work.
Keep in mind the following:
Do NOT attempt set up VDI prior to your official start date.
Check your personal email for your login details prior to setting up your laptop.
Make sure you have received an Amazon Workspaces Registration code.
The default configuration of your Amazon WorkSpace only allows connections from Windows or macOS clients. We will need to make some changes to enable you to connect from another client operating system.
Please note that once these changes are made, your WorkSpace will no longer be able to utilize a webcam.
