In one embodiment a computing system comprises one or more processors, a display device coupled to the computing system, and a memory module communicatively connected to the one or more processors. The memory module comprises logic to receive, in a connection server, a service request from a user via a remote connection client; in response to the service request, instantiate a remote computing protocol in a computing resource, monitor a connection state between the remote connection client and the computing resource; and in response to a change in the connection state between the remote connection client and the computing resource, generate a connection state message, and transfer the connection state message to the remote connection client.
