The biggest problem came down to performance of that RDP-based solution and the movement away from RDP to H.264UC within VBSS is a big step in overcoming the overall performance issues. I won’t attempt to completely re-invent the wheel given that Jeff’s post already has most of the info, but I’ll add some personal flavor to the discussion that will increase the available information out there and potentially fill in some gaps… Background on VBSS vs RDPįrom OCS 2007 to the current Skype4B Server 2015 version, application sharing has been accomplished by using the RDP protocol for both peer to peer and multi-party communications. Note: While I was away on vacation, Jeff Schertz published another article before me – again – but in his defense, if the roles were reversed then I would have done the same thing! All a matter of timing 😉 Knowing that video based screen sharing (VBSS) was coming down the pipeline, the intention was to come back and publish info on VBSS afterwards, but Jeff Schertz beat me to it and published an article that took the wind out of my sails – we’ll hash out the differences over a beer when I’m back in Chicago, Jeff 😉 AppShare tends to be the ‘forgotten modality’, in my opinion, so the goal was to raise awareness around just how considerable the usage could impact enterprise networks. If you’ve been following along with my blog, you may have noticed that I published an article around application sharing a few months ago.
