Connection architecture

P2P first

RockDesk attempts a direct peer-to-peer connection using NAT traversal. A relay is used when a direct path cannot be established.

WebSocket fallback

WebSocket relay endpoints are available for networks where conventional remote desktop ports or UDP traffic are restricted.

Adaptive streaming

The client adjusts streaming behavior to changing network conditions and supports modern video codecs including AV1.

End-to-end encryption

Remote sessions use end-to-end encrypted transport. Organizations can operate the supporting infrastructure themselves.

Self-hosted and enterprise deployment

A RockDesk deployment can include an ID/signaling service, relay service and an optional management layer. The public download service is suitable for evaluation; organizations can request deployment on their own cloud or on-premises infrastructure.

Evaluation checklist

  1. Test direct and relayed connections on the networks you actually use.
  2. Confirm platform-specific input, display, audio and file-transfer requirements.
  3. For self-hosting, document DNS, firewall, certificate, backup and upgrade ownership.
  4. For regulated deployments, validate identity, logging, retention and access-control settings against your own policy.
