On Construction and Performance Evaluation of a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure With GPU Accelerated
More engaging and accessible solutions that offer outstanding user experience are needed. The virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) is the first user access part of the cloud. Therefore, the performance of the VDI has a significant influence on the network. The graphics processing unit (GPU) can acce...

More engaging and accessible solutions that offer outstanding user experience are needed. The virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) is the first user access part of the cloud. Therefore, the performance of the VDI has a significant influence on the network. The graphics processing unit (GPU) can accelerate performance by assigning each virtual machine a dedicated GPU for performance-boosting to improve the user experience. In this paper, we propose a high-performance VDI using an integration of a GPU on OpenStack with a PCI pass-through. It might have certain benefits over using virtualized hardware, such as lower latency, better performance, and more functionality. The evaluation and comparison of the computer processing unit (CPU) and GPU are presented among the different benchmark tools. |
