Abstract: A computer system includes a virtual server to provide virtual computing sessions, and a client device to access one of the virtual computing sessions via a communications network. The client device includes a wireless transceiver connected to a cellular network. A server communicates with the client device via the cellular network based on the client device losing connectivity to the communications network. The cellular network provides a backup communications channel for the server to restore connectivity for the client device to access one of the virtual computing sessions via the communications network.

Abstract: A computer system includes a client device, and a server configured to monitor a status of a virtual computing session for failure, with the virtual computing session being accessed by the client device. The server redirects the client device to a backup virtual computing session based on failure of the virtual computing session, and updates a state of the backup virtual computing session to match a previous state of the virtual computing session prior to failure.

Abstract: A computer system includes a client device that includes a physical power control input to change the client device between on/off states, and a virtual server running virtual machines, with the client device accessing one of the virtual machines. The computer system includes a computing platform that interfaces with the client device and the virtual server to map the client device to the virtual machine being accessed by the client device, and receive at least one power control signal from the client device based on selection of the physical power control input. The computing platform initiates, in response to the received at least one power control signal and the client device being mapped to the virtual machine, a change in an on/off state of the virtual machine to match a change in the on/off state of the client device so as to reboot the virtual machine.
