New "multipoint services" in RDS in Windows Server TP4

In the recently released Windows Server 2016 Technology Preview 4, there was something new in Remote Desktop services called "Multipoint Services":

Do not know if you know the other server version, called "Windows MultiPoint Server 2012" Before this version is mainly used for education school solutions, now enterprise users also have such a solution, then what is the solution?

I personally think that is the server version of the functionality of the integration into Windows Server 2016, then what is this multi-point service?

In a nutshell, I think it's just allowing multiple users, each with their own separate Windows experience, to share a single computer. Connect using a multi-function USB hub and video output over a local area network, each user has their own independent and familiar Windows desktop experience, connected to the host with their own monitor, keyboard and mouse.

But this is not like a full RDS deployment, the multipoint service does not use the Remote Desktop RDCB and RDG roles. Applications are closer to similar physical connections, such as school computer labs, retail stores, and more:

This is a solution to reduce hardware costs.

So how do you manage multiple users on this computer?

Multipoint Services has its own management tools to manage the state of user sessions: Orchestration Tools

OK, this preview version of the new feature is outlined here, I continue to study. hehe ~
