Tech preview is in full swing.
A demonstration of the industry’s first NVIDIA vGPU (virtual GPU) Citrix XenMotion technology for live migration is happening at Citrix Summit, next week at the Anaheim Convention Center. It’s among the new advancements we’re bringing with our partners in 2018.
Available starting now as a tech preview to select customers, XenMotion includes the ability to migrate live, NVIDIA GPU-accelerated VMs with no impact to the user. This allows IT to perform critical services like workload leveling, infrastructure resilience and the upgrade of server software, without any VM downtime. This is especially important in today’s 24/7 world, where hourly costs of downtime for enterprises exceeds $300,000 on average, with some industries such as financial services standing to lose $1 million or more, according to ITIC.
Live migration support for GPU-accelerated VMs on Citrix XenMotion coupled with vGPU monitoring in Citrix Director gives IT the insight and flexibility to identify and respond quickly to issues and ensure high availability, ultimately delivering quality user experience.
VMware vSphere also delivers an optimized, GPU-enabled IT environment with NVIDIA vGPU. Administrators have access to insightful data across all phases of virtual workspace lifecycle and, recently, NVIDIA began a tech preview program with select VMware customers to evaluate an upcoming management feature that enables IT admins to suspend running NVIDIA vGPU-powered vSphere virtual desktops and resume them later on compatible infrastructure without end-user interaction, while preserving desktop and application states.
