NVIDIA Virtual PC (vPC) vs. Red Hat Virtualization

Nvidia GRID is the only real ready-made hardware solution available for streaming game services, 3D graphics acceleration in Virtual Desktop Infrastructures, and 3D enhanced streaming apps. Grid is also great for processing large quantities of small data-sets, such as financial, trading, science, astronomy, and much more. Grid is also well known for digital currency mining, such as Bitcoin.

Red Hat Virtualization is suitable for small implementation and hosting VMs. However, when you start asking for additional features or enhancements, the engineering team is not the flexible as other engineering teams in Red Hat. It is very likely they will not accept adding features or in the best case. They wouldn't commit to a plan when it is possible to be available.

• Streaming Game Services.
• Dedicated graphics processing form virtual desktop infrastructures, allowing the use of Photoshop, CAD, Video Editing, and more.
• Enhanced computing & processing of data thay consists of large amounts of smaller data sets.
• Financial based calculations.

• RHV issues/bugs can be reported via Bugzilla to RH support. The service is great and typically responds soon.
• Red Hat distribution integration is seamless as it is integrated into the kernel.
• OpenStack support enables more customized VM templates and network configuration control.

Incentivized

• The cost for Nvidia GRID capable hardware is still very high, but is & has been dropping fairly rapidly.
• Latency is a large problem for "interaction" based systems (Gaming, remote desktop use) and requires high-speed data, and hosting close to the client.
• No real solutions for smaller businesses, but cloud hosting providers like SoftLayer are beginning to offer affordable hosted grid-capable environments.

Incentivized

• Documentation of RHEV needs more improvement.
• RHEV GUI needs a lot of improvements in some versions of RHEV, GUI will not work properly (shows incorrect details of VM ).
• Need fast rollout of patch releases.
• Need good linux Knowledge to manage the RHEVM.

Red Hat Virtualization is the best enterprise-level virtualization software for an organization that needs cost-effective and flexible solutions for its environment. We can easily integrate RHEV with other Red Hat software like OpenStack...etc. RHEV is highly customizable software, which helps us to customize our environment. Since RHEV is an open-source tool, we can install it on any hardware. There is no proprietary dependency.

Incentivized

• Allows us to simplify all of our VDI designs, as power users can be managed like all other cloud users, instead of requiring individual systems.
• Provides a way of offering a substantial processing increase for computing/calculations over and above what additional CPUs could offers.
• Offers the only "ready-made" solution for on-demand gaming services, after Sony purchased OnLive, and provides an affordable method for startups to enter the Industry.

Incentivized

• It has had an extremely positive impact on my overall business and has allowed me to utilize and leverage it as an offering to my clients.
• It's an extremely solid, robust, and reliable product built off of KVM Virtualization technology.
• Less expensive solution than VMware and includes more features!
