NVIDIA has introduced new virtualisation software capabilities that turn NVIDIA Tesla GPU-accelerated servers into powerful workstations.
Certified with hundreds of professional workstation applications, NVIDIA Quadro is the industry standard for professional visualisation in the enterprise. Now, NVIDIA Quadro Virtual Data Center Workstation Software (Quadro vDWS) will run both virtualised graphics and compute workloads on any virtual workstation or laptop from NVIDIA Tesla-accelerated data centres.
Available for over 120 systems from 33 system vendors, Quadro vDWS provides high-end performance to multiple enterprise users from the same GPU for a lower cost of ownership.
Quadro vDWS enables greater mobility and collaboration among globally dispersed teams. It also addresses the increasingly compute-intensive workflows associated with new technologies for 3D, photorealistic rendering, virtual reality (VR) and deep learning. These are particularly common in such fields as engineering and science, where, for example, simulations are conducted during the design process to accurately predict final products.
When powered by NVIDIA Pascal architecture-based Tesla GPU accelerators, Quadro vDWS provides:
● The ability to create complex 3D and photoreal designs - supports up to 24GB of GPU memory for working with large, immersive models.
● Increased productivity - up to double the graphics performance of the previous NVIDIA GPU architecture.
● Unified graphics and compute workloads - supports accelerated graphics and compute (CUDA
and OpenCL) workflows to streamline design and computer-aided engineering simulation.
● Better performance for Linux users - NVIDIA NVENC delivers better performance and user density by off-loading H.264 video encoding, a compute-intensive task, from the CPU for Linux virtual workstation users.
“The enterprise is transforming. Workflows are evolving to incorporate AI, photorealism, VR, and greater collaboration among employees. The Quadro visualisation platform is evolving with the enterprise to provide the performance required,” said Bob Pette, VP of Professional Visualization at NVIDIA. “With Quadro vDWS on Tesla-powered servers, businesses can tackle larger datasets, power the most demanding applications and meet the need for greater mobility.”
With Quadro vDWS, NVIDIA customers like virtual prototyping pioneer ESI Group are able to support multiple engineers on a single GPU while they remotely access powerful applications in real-time and conduct immersive product visualisations. The company has a number of offices in Asia and Oceania.
“Our customers are looking to democratise virtual reality across the enterprise,” said Eric Kam, Product Marketing Manager of Immersive Experience at ESI. “Virtual prototypes can suffer similar shortcomings as physical prototypes; they are relatively expensive and often location limited due to hardware and software requirements. With the NVIDIA Quadro vDWS and Tesla P40, our VRify application provides the power, performance, and user experience of a physical workstation. This allows users to easily manage data-heavy 3D assets, integrate complex geometry into virtual environments, run realtime multibody physics simulations and potentially experience their designs in VR though their browser, untethered from any one location.”
At the same time as manufacturing and design workloads are growing more complex, everyday software like Windows 10, Office 365 and streaming applications like YouTube now require graphics acceleration to deliver features, functionality and a great virtual PC user experience for the digital workplace.
To address the growing demand for graphics-accelerated VDI, NVIDIA announced improvements to its NVIDIA GRID vPC product. By leveraging new enhancements in the NVIDIA GRID August 2017 release and Pascal-based NVIDIA Tesla GPU accelerators, GRID vPC provides:
● Improved user density and scalability - The Tesla P40 supports up to 248 instances of 1GB virtual desktop profiles, which is a 50% increase when compared to the Tesla M60.
● Greater vGPU insight - End-to-end management and monitoring tools provide vGPU visibility at the host or guest level. Application-level monitoring capabilities allow IT to intelligently design, manage and support their end users’ experience. New integrations with VMware vRealize Operations (vROps), Citrix Director and XenCenter enable flexibility and control from a single, unified view.
● Better service - A new GPU resource scheduler helps IT departments enable seamless, consistent allocation of vGPU resources to the user, preventing latency and a degraded user experience caused by a “noisy neighbour.”
Users also have more choice for complementary Tesla support. Joining the NVIDIA Tesla P4, P40 and P100 is the new Tesla P6. It is designed for blade servers, delivers 16GB of memory and supports up to 16 instances of 1GB virtual desktop profiles.
