Modern Desktops & Workstations in the Cloud AMD-powered NVv4 instances deliver security focused and affordable GPU-partitioned virtual machines in Microsoft Azure� From task workers to designers and architects, many of their everyday applications rely on GPU acceleration to deliver responsive user experiences and maximize productivity. Traditional CPU-only virtual machines often struggle to keep up with modern applications, leading to frustrated users as their productivity declines, while deploying GPU-accelerated, on-premises virtual environments can be too costly. With the introduction of NVv4, Microsoft Azure can now deliver security focused and affordable modern desktop experiences in the cloud. Powered by AMD Radeon InstinctTM GPUs and its industry-first SR-IOV technology, the NVv4 instance offers a choice of four configurable options designed to deliver just the right amount of GPU capability for any enterprise workloads. NVv4 instance offers license-free GPU partitioning on discrete-GPUs in Azure. The result is a security focused, affordable, GPU-powered desktop and workstation experience in the cloud.

The first GPU-partitioned VM on Azure, making GPU-enabled VMs more affordable than ever before 2. Four available NVv4 options designed to accelerate modern-day workloads from office productivity to professional 3D CAD and design-visualization 3. Manage NVv4 instances through preferred remote protocols: RDP, Citrix HDx, or Teradici� PCoIP� 4. Each NVv4 instance can be deployed in single- or multi-session configuration for maximum IT flexibility and scalability 5. Powered by the latest 2nd Gen AMD EPYCTM processors and AMD Radeon InstinctTM GPUs 6. Uncompromised workstation-class experience with CAD- and AEC ISV-certified applications 7. Supports Windows 10 Enterprise Multi-Session to deliver a "true" Windows 10 experience in Azure, reducing compatibility issues when migrating Windows 10 desktop applications to Azure What is S4.0R-IOV for GPUs?
