Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media are disclosed for creating a multi-port client server connection in a remote desktop environment. In an embodiment, the multi-client server connection can decouple client-server connection and client-server input from graphics delivery from the server to the client. Such embodiment provides higher server performance and enables dynamic server resource management. The multi-client server connection can be implemented in a virtual environment or between physical machines where one set of physical machines receives the graphics requests from the client and another set of physical machines generates and transmits display data to the client.
