BACKGROUND
What is CloudShell™ in nutshell?
A command-line interface is an operating system shell that uses alphanumeric characters typed on a keyboard to provide instructions and data to the operating system, interactively.
Command-line shells require the user to be familiar with commands and their calling syntax and to understand concepts about the shell-specific scripting language - for example bash, zsh, PowerShell.
Command-line interfaces are accessible through standard interfaces - you can give them input through standard interfaces and pass the result of the processing through standard output channels and pipes - whether processed by a machine or human interface.
With CloudShell™, you can easily connect your machines in a standard way, accessing their standard input, standard output and standard error pipes - stdin, stdout, stderr - over secure SSL/TLS, with WebSocket technologies and WebRTC technologies.
CloudShell™ is a service that makes the devices and applications you own accessible anywhere in the world, securely and effortlessly. It enables encrypted point-to-point connections using WebSocket and WebRTC data channel, bi-directional protocol, which means devices on your network can communicate with each other in peer-to-peer. The contents of the standard input, output and error pipes - stdin, stdout, stderr - of the linked command-line interfaces only travel between the endpoints, are not visible in the CloudShell™ service centre, and cannot be accessed.
