Probably Miranda. Brings back a lot of memories from the flint/flame/inferno days. I remember buying a tezro for ~150k USD in 2005/6. We also were "gifted" an Inferno around that time which I heard originally cost multiple hundreds of thousands. When it showed up it was the size of a refrigerator and took dual 30A power feeds. Sounded like a jet and didn't last long.
Teradici came on the scene and started running everything over IP. Hardware at first (old EVGA pyramids were everywhere) where you had to route the video out into a custom card that then put out the signal via IP.
Now it's all software with the leaders being teradici (merged with HP anywhere which came from IBM), nicedcv (Amazon), parsec, and a few others.
The big advantage in content production over something like vcn/rdp was color fidelity, local cursor termination, and support for hardware like Wacom tablets. You can even do 7.1 audio and multiple monitors. Turns out when you are an artist having a local like feel is incredibly important. 60fps is 16ms per frame. So even with virtual workstations on AWS you want to deploy them in a region that is relatively close to the end user.
