XenApp 6.5 with NVIDIA GRID
Introducing the ideal solution for users who want a true PC graphics-rich experience from applications that are virtualised, centralised, and managed in the data centre. Virtual application delivery with XenApp and NVIDIA GRID™ offloads graphics processing from the CPU to the GPU, allowing the data centre manager to deliver to all user types for the first time.
A key feature of GRID-enabled XenApp 6.5 is its ability to run NVIDIA’s production driver for GRID K1 and K2 boards with full support for the key APIs: OpenGL 4.3 and DirectX9,10, and 11.
By using advanced server-side GPU rendering, XenApp enables users to perform at their best without interruption, from anywhere.
