NVIDIA GRID technology allows knowledge workers and high-end graphics users such as engineers and designers to utilise graphics-rich applications through the cloud anywhere on any device – with the same quality and performance they would have on a professional workstation. NVIDIA GRID provides a critical performance boost for enterprise users in virtualised environments running anything from basic web-based applications like HTML 5 to professional applications such as Autodesk AutoCAD.
Now, with GRID Test Drive, anyone who is interested in experiencing the benefit of graphics acceleration for virtualised desktops can do so immediately without first having to build a proof-of-concept private cloud. GRID Test Drive accelerates user insight into the benefits of virtualised graphics and provides an easy way for any GRID partner to demonstrate GRID technology.
“NVIDIA GRID is experiencing strong customer adoption and engagement among OEM and ISV partners including HP, Dell, Citrix, VMware and Microsoft, who continue to add increasing support for virtual GPUs in new product releases,” said Andrew Cresci, GM Cloud and Virtualisation Solutions, NVIDIA. “IT professionals know that virtualised graphics are key to VDI’s success and increased implementation moving forward. Now they can easily experience NVIDIA GRID’s performance and reliability via the first ever online trial of its kind.”
