Thinfinity® Workspace: Best Practices for Production Environments

Introduction

Deploying Thinfinity® Workspace in enterprise environments requires more than just installing the software. It involves designing a network and security architecture that ensures scalability, resilience, and compliance. Because Thinfinity Workspace acts as a critical access layer for desktops, applications, and privileged resources, its performance and security depends directly on the underlying infrastructure.

This guide provides network and architecture best practices for a successful Thinfinity Workspace deployment. It covers the recommended topologies, communication flows, and security controls required to integrate Thinfinity Workspace seamlessly into enterprise environments.

Special attention is given to ensuring high availability and peak performance through supporting components such as load balancers, as well as detailing the proper configuration of firewalls and WAFs (Web Application Firewalls). The goal is to ensure that traffic is managed, inspected, and distributed effectively without compromising performance

By following the practices outlined here, organizations will:

• Establish a secure baseline for Thinfinity Workspace services aligned with Zero Trust principles.

• Ensure high availability and fault tolerance through properly configured load balancing and redundancy.

• Achieve optimal performance by enabling correct communication flows across Brokers, Gateways, and client endpoints.

• Simplify regulatory compliance and auditing by leveraging logging, observability, and policy-driven controls at every layer.

This document is intended for system administrators, network architects, and security teams responsible for implementing Thinfinity Workspace in production environments. It serves as a reference framework to reduce risks, streamline deployments, and deliver a robust digital workspace experience for end users.
