applications areas. It describes the features that are being designed into HP ProLiant servers to support Acceleration and Visualization products, and it describes the ongoing qualification and testing efforts undertaken at HP to ensure that these products provide robust and optimized solutions when - HP ProLiant DL388e | Visualization and Acceleration in HP ProLiant servers - Page 3
for viewing using remote viewing software such as HP Remote Graphics Software or other 3rd party products. There are several advantages to running Visualization applications on servers. Server processor and memory resources. Servers can provide more processors and larger memory configurations - HP ProLiant DL388e | Visualization and Acceleration in HP ProLiant servers - Page 4
are actually compiled into the FPGA. FPGA acceleration products for servers come in two different physical configurations. Some products use -based acceleration offer unique and cost-effective solutions for supporting large-scale computationally intense applications on industry standard systems. - HP ProLiant DL388e | Visualization and Acceleration in HP ProLiant servers - Page 5
any endeavor that requires large-scale computationally intensive problem solving. There are off-the-shelf applications In order to provide the best support for accelerator products, HP has incorporated true x16 PCI Express slots into many of its ProLiant servers.
