Citrix Accelerates Virtual Desktops and Applications with NVIDIA Virtual GPU

Accelerating Virtual Desktops and Applications with NVIDIA Virtual GPU

Citrix and NVIDIA pioneered virtual graphics delivery solutions back in 2013, with Citrix XenServer being the first hypervisor ever to offer virtual GPU support. The companies have been working together ever since to bring the power of NVIDIA virtual GPUs (vGPUs) to Citrix XenDesktop and XenApp environments. Today, you can deliver a visually rich, high-end user experience accessible to everyone from designers to mobile professionals to knowledge workers—even in the most challenging network conditions.
