OREANDA-NEWS. March 12, 2015. Run a business? Have users spread across offices or working remotely? Want to share graphics apps with them virtually? Then get yourself to our GPU Technology Conference, because enterprise graphics virtualization is about to get real.

With participation by some of the biggest names in manufacturing, technology and engineering, the show’s Graphics Virtualization track is one you won’t want to miss.

It includes some 50 sessions covering all aspects of enterprise graphics virtualization. You’ll hear from experts, customers and partners from around the world, sharing their experiences and best practices.

Bell Helicopter will discuss how it’s designing and manufacturing helicopters with help from NVIDIA GRID technology. Running on Citrix XenServer 6.5 and XenDesktop 7.6, GRID boosted graphics performance of intensive 3D applications such as Dassault Syst?mes CATIA and Ansys in virtual environments. It’s bolstered employee mobility and productivity, and better safeguards sensitive data.

Jacobs Engineering will share its success with virtual desktop infrastructure. It expanded the capabilities of its VMware Horizon 6 architecture with NVIDIA GRID. And now its design departments and remote offices can provide a feature-rich 3D design environment to all users, without sacrificing security, reliability and performance.

You’ll also hear from partners like ESRI, whose ArcGIS Pro application performs virtually while the application and geographic data stays in the data center. The app is available now on GRID Test Drive for anyone, anywhere, to try for free.

And don’t miss VMware describing the unique benefits and exceptional performance of GRID vGPU deployed on VMware Horizon desktops – and how organizations have implemented this solution.

Other featured speakers include executives from Cisco, Citrix, Ford Motor Company, HP, Lakeside Software, MetroHealth, NICE, Siemens, STV and TATA Technologies.

Also not to be missed, on Tuesday, March 18, from 5-7 pm in the exhibit hall, we’re holding a throw-down with VMware. You’ll see teams of the best engineers from NVIDIA and VMware battle for proof-of-concept supremacy by building a pool of virtual desktops from bare metal in the shortest amount of time.
