Jáchym, Jeff, thanks for reminding us of gis.lab. Martin Landa and Ivana Mincik, I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on collaboration.

Doug, I assume you already know of http://live.osgeo.org and you might want to watch the osgeolive mailing list as we discuss this. https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/live-demo

Warm regards, Cameron

    Hi Cameron,

    this is exactly what GIS.Lab project is about - booting from the
    network, shared resources...

    Martin Landa and Ivana Mincik (cced) could tell more

        Does anyone have experience or suggestions in getting OSGeo
        packages
        (ideally OSGeo-Live) working as a remote desktop from a cloud
        platform?

        As per Chris Barnett's emails, the FOSS4G 2017 would like to
        get it
        working for the global FOSS4G.

            workshop
            participants, but we’d also like to make cloud-based instances
            available via remote desktop. I’ve run into a couple of
            technical
            issues with this and think it would be very useful to draw
            on your
            collective knowledge and experience. What would be the
            best/most
            appropriate way to go about this?

            I’m really just at the phase of ascertaining feasibility.
            My attempt
            to import the OSGeo Live VM to AWS failed because the AWS
            import
            process didn’t support Lubuntu. I think that I probably
            can get it to
            work on other cloud hosts, but I haven’t had a chance to
            test yet. For
            remote access to the desktop I’ve been using xrdp and
            tigervnc. This
            also looks like an interesting option:
            http://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/
            <http://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/>, as it allows
            remote access via
            the browser.

            I think it would be fantastic if a cloud version could be
            reused
            beyond FOSS4G. Something like a docker image could be a
            nice solution,
            as it would be portable across many cloud providers and
            could also be
            installed locally.

            With regards to getting OSGeo-Live working in the cloud, I
            think that
            would be an excellent goal to work on. Back in 2009 some
            people did
            actually get OSGeo-Live working on one of the early cloud
            platforms
            (called click2try which is now out of business).
