For security reasons, the Ace Cloud hosted desktop is configured to disconnect after 1 hour of inactivity.

Learn about the user idle time disconnection policy on Ace Cloud Hosting server by following the below solutions:

  1. QuickBooks only shared server – This is a system-wide setting in case of QuickBooks only shared server, and it cannot be altered.
  2. Private Dedicated server – In the case of a private dedicated server, the default disconnection time for idle sessions is 1 hour only.

Benefits:
Here’re the 2 benefits of user Idle time policy on the Ace Cloud Hosting server:

  • Resource Optimization: The server’s allotted resources, such as CPU, memory, and network bandwidth, are not properly used while users are inactive and not actively using them. The server can maximize resource consumption and boost system performance by introducing an idle time policy and reclaiming and reallocating these idle resources to other active users.
  • Cost reduction: Users of cloud servers are frequently charged according to resource use. Users who are inactive for a lengthy period of time can be automatically logged out or put into low-power mode by implementing an idle time policy. This aids in lowering the server’s total resource utilization, which in turn decreases operating and maintenance expenses.

Conclusion:
Implementing an idle time policy on the Ace Cloud Hosting server can improve resource utilization, lower costs, strengthen security, distribute resources fairly, and promote energy efficiency.
