"Amazon Web Services announced on Wednesday at its AWS re:Invent conference a new service, AppStream, that will run high-resource apps, such as “3D games and interactive HD applications,” from the cloud.\r\n\r\nAt launch, AppStream will support streaming to FireOS, Android, iOS and Windows devices. AWS also noted that a Mac OS X SDK is scheduled to arrive next year.\r\n\r\nBy leveraging the cloud, AppStream will make it possible for users to run resource intensive applications on low-performance hardware.  According to Amazon, the advantages to using AppStream include: not having to deal with computing and storage constraints, reduced development time, instant-on access without having to download and install the app and simplified software updates.\r\n\r\nAlso on Wednesday, AWS announced a new Amazon WorkSpaces for creating virtual desktops on other devices. Earlier this month, AWS announced a new Elastic Compute Cloud instance designed for 3D graphics capabilities.\r\n\r\n➤ AppStream\r\n\r\nImage Credit: LIONEL BONAVENTURE/AFP/Getty Images\r\n\r\n&amp;nbsp;"
