Have laptop, will travel: GPU-intensive apps anywhere with RVIZ from PCPC - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

The energy sector, among others, has been hit hard over the last few years by natural disasters like hurricanes and of course, the COVID-19 pandemic. Having a truly mobile workforce becomes an imperative. In energy exploration, teams of scientists who normally use powerful workstations containing GPUs to interpret 3D subsurface models using applications like Schlumberger Petrel had to wait for floodwaters to recede after Hurricane Harvey before they could access their powerful GPU workstations. Productivity took an enormous hit costing millions of dollars. As a result, contingency plans were put in place. One plan was to have 3D interpretation workers already working remotely before the next disaster struck. RVIZ evolves this contingency plan into a complete paradigm change: a truly remote work model. Join this Red Hat-sponsored webinar to see how PCPC Direct, Red Hat, NVIDIA, Mechdyne, Leostream and Lenovo created an offering called RVIZ. RVIZ serves up high-end 3D graphics-intensive applications in a truly remote manner. A user with a laptop and a standard Internet connection can run big 3D models without click wait, stutter or pixelization from home or elsewhere. Red Hat is pleased to host Mike Walsh from PCPC for a talk on RVIZ. He will discuss a great case study and see how one company fully deployed RVIZ after Hurricane Harvey and was ready when COVID-19 arrived. Mike Walsh joined PCPC Direct in 2007 as a Sales Executive responsible for developing complex IT infrastructure solutions with many key technology partners involved. Dave Montana has been with Red Hat since 2016 and is the Global Director of Strategic Accounts looking after the Energy and Automotive industries. Building on experience gained at Oil Operators and Energy service companies, he helps Red Hat work with partners to deliver world-leading solutions to the marketplace.
