What Is Workspace?

Huawei Workspace is a desktop service based on cloud computing (including edge computing). Unlike conventional PCs and VDIs, Workspace enables enterprises to quickly build office environments without investing a large amount of money and spending days in deployment. Workspace supports multiple login modes, allowing you to flexibly access files and use applications for mobile office. (使用Huawei hdp协议)
