It is licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0, and is actively maintained by a community of developers that use Guacamole to access their own development environments. With both Guacamole and a desktop operating system hosted in the cloud, you can combine the convenience of Guacamole with the resilience and flexibility of cloud computing.Īpache Guacamole is and will always be free and open source software. As long as you have access to a web browser, you have access to your machines.ĭesktops accessed through Guacamole need not physically exist.
