Options for deployment via Remote Desktop Services / Terminal Server

Currently we have volume licenses for CS which is deployed via remote desktop services in a multi-server load balanced farm.

When reaching out to support, they informed me that CC cannot be deployed via RDS/terminal services.

Seeing that CS is discontinued, how does Adobe suggest deployment of their apps via RDS/Terminal services moving forward?

Our main concern is for when CS6 is no longer supported and no longer gets security updates.

The support rep really didn't have an answer for me.

I find it hard to believe that Adobe's going to abandon deployment of their apps in the enterprise as things are moving towards thin clients rather than traditional desktops.

We'd like to avoid needing to go VDI instead of RDS if possible.

I'd imagine VDI would have the same licensing issues assuming you don't want to have a dedicated VM for each user rather than having a shared pool of VMs.

Thank You.

I'm interested in that issue as well as a lot of our Clients would like to deploy Adobe Creative Cloud apps in their Enterprise. As I'm a Citrix virtualization engineer I'd like to have an official Statement from Adobe whether or not their products can be licensed and installed on either Citrix XenDesktop (formerly XenApp) Servers and/or virtual Desktops (VDI Environment). This questions Needs answering from both a licensing as well as technical Point of view. So please Adobe, share your knowledge with us.

Adobe, is this only answerable through a support ticket? We would like for our enterprise users to use Adobe products, as well, and remote desktop collections aren't going away any time soon.
