During its annual TechEd conference in Houston, Microsoft announced a tech preview of a new service allowing customers to run applications from Microsoft Azure called Azure RemoteApp. With this new service, customers can run Windows applications on several devices running a remote desktop client. In order to this to work, Microsoft will release a Microsoft RemoteApp app for Windows, update the Microsoft Remote Desktop apps for iOS and Android and add support for Azure RemoteApp to its clients for Mac, Windows Phone and Windows RT.
Azure RemoteApp was used to be known a codename Mohoro, as reported by cloudcomputing.info in May 2013, for which initially most analysts thought it would become a Desktop as a Service (DaaS) solution providing Remote Desktop and Remote App provided by Microsoft.
