On December 14th the members of the 2018 NVIDIA vGPU Community Advisors (NGCA) were announced. I can’t tell you how excited I am to be part of this distinguished group of community members.
The announcement listing all the outstanding thought leaders who have been selected as community advisors can be found here: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2017/12/14/introducing-new-ngca-members/
Each member of this community is doing exceptional work in virtualization and virtual GPUs. For my part I’ve been working on building advanced Linux VMs with vGPU capabilities. As part of this I’ve presented at GTC17 as well as a vBrownbag Tech Talk at VMworld. In the months ahead I will also be presenting at GTC18 about deploying CUDA in a virtual environment, but that’s a post for another time. All of the community members are working on similar things that are pushing the bounds of how GPUs are being used in virtual environments.
In my opinion one of the best parts of the NGCA is the diversity of the group. Some are deeply involved with VMware virtualization technologies, others Citrix virtualization technologies, and we all have our different areas where we provide unique perspectives on vGPU technology and the industry.
If I could make one recommendation, you should follow the members of the NGCA on social media, be it LinkedIn, Twitter, or other social media platform. You’ll have the opportunity to discover lots of great knowledge.
Again it’s an absolute honor to be selected as part of the 2018 NVIDIA vGPU Community Advisors and I’m looking forward to 2018.
