3D graphics for zero clients
08:51 07.01.2015

For more than a year and a half Vladivostok State University of Economics and Service has been using zero clients: by the beginning of 2014 there had been 360 of them.

In March 2014 the staff of the IT Department took the next positive step to implement virtual desktops based on VMware: now the University’s students and staff can use 3D graphics on zero clients.

This became possible after purchasing a new server with physical video cards. Its features allow users to run large graphics programs on 30 virtual computers simultaneously. 

At present, this server is used to support education process and to enhance safety on the territory of the University:

  • To support education process, we have installed software for working with graphics (CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4, Adobe Photoshop and others).
  • The server’s features have allowed us to install zero clients for the staff responsible for the operation of video cameras on the territory of the University. Before it was impossible because the programs running cameras required physical video card.  

At present virtual desktops for working with 3D graphics are created for zero clients located in room 1401 (Computer Center). If necessary, such desktops can be activated in any of the computer rooms with zero clients.
