Abstract

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.

Highlights

  • Virtualization supports a data center by increasing the utilization of computing resources, which may otherwise be wasted

  • We described the steps to configure the instance in the OpenStack cloud, which includes the order of the requests and interaction between various OpenStack components to successfully start the virtual machines (VMs)

  • The first test was performed under different computer processing unit (CPU) numbers, and two values were returned to determine whether the graphics processing unit (GPU) can accelerate the effect in a VM

Summary

Introduction

Virtualization supports a data center by increasing the utilization of computing resources, which may otherwise be wasted. Many companies have moved their systems and services to cloud computing environments to reduce the cost of investment for the management of information equipment. All resources are virtualized, such as the computer processing unit (CPU), storage, and network resources. A. VIRTUALIZATION In cloud computing technology, virtualization [7]–[10] is the abstraction and transformation of computer entity resources, such as servers, networks, memory, and storage. The virtual part of the system is not affected by the existing resources or setup of the geographic or physical limitations. This refers to virtualized resources, including computing power and data storage. Virtualization technology transforms the entity into a virtual computing environment (i.e., VM) available to the user
