Future-Proof Your Infrastructure

Simplified Management of Virtualized Data Centers.

Management & Monitoring

Management & Monitoring

Live migration of GPU-accelerated VMs gives you continuous uptime and proactive management abilities — without negatively impacting users or losing data.

Improve Business Continuity

Business Continuity & Workload Balancing

Increase utilization of data center resources by leveraging a unified, virtual GPU-accelerated infrastructure to run mixed VDI and compute workloads.

Optimal Resource Utilization

Resource Sharing & Improved Utilization

Divide GPU resources and share them across multiple VMs, or allocate multiple GPUs to a single VM to power the most demanding workloads.

Bare Metal Performance

Bare Metal Performance

Get performance that’s nearly indistinguishable from a non-virtualized environment with flexible scheduling options.

Take a Peek Under the Hood

Take a Peek Under the Hood

In a virtualized environment that’s powered by NVIDIA virtual GPUs, the NVIDIA virtual GPU (vGPU) software is installed at the virtualization layer along with the hypervisor. This software creates virtual GPUs that let every virtual machine (VM) share the physical GPU installed on the server. For more demanding workflows, a single VM can harness the power of multiple physical GPUs. Our software includes a graphics or compute driver for every VM. Since work that was typically done by the CPU is offloaded to the GPU, the user has a much better experience. Demanding engineering and creative applications, as well as compute-intensive workloads like AI and data science, can be supported in a virtualized and cloud environment.
