NVIDIA RTX Server™ is a validated combination of qualified partner systems hosting NVIDIA®
Quadro® RTX™ 6000 or RTX 8000 GPUs and Quadro® Virtual Data Center Workstation (Quadro
vDWS) software to provide virtualized design workstations where artists and designers can
create professional, photorealistic images for the Media & Entertainment, Architecture,
Engineering & Construction (AEC), and Manufacturing & Design industries.
1.1 RTX SERVER OVERVIEW
In today’s media rich world, there is a massive surge of content production. Designers and
artists are looking for ways to create faster and more efficiently anywhere on the device of
their choice. IT looks to enable this in a secure, easily managed, cost-effective and flexible
way. NVIDIA RTX Server is an ideal platform to increase user productivity while increasing data
center utilization and reducing cost.
The audience for this document includes, but is not limited to, sales engineers, field
consultants, professional services, partner engineers, and IT Managers who wish to take
advantage of a solution that is purpose built and optimized to deliver a virtualized design and
creation workflow.

NVIDIA RTX Server for Virtual Workstation with Teradici Cloud Access Software on RAVE-AS-
RTX6000-4 is a reference design comprised of (a) NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 graphics cards; (b)
VMware vSphere Hypervisor with vCenter; (c) NVIDIA Quadro vDWS software; (d) RAVE-AS-
RTX6000-4; (e) thin client[spec below in Table 1]; (f) Teradici Cloud Access Software with
PCoIP® Ultra. This validated solution provides unprecedented graphics performance in a
virtualized environment on professional applications at a fraction of the cost, space, and
power consumption to individual local workstations.
NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000, powered by the NVIDIA Turing™ architecture and the NVIDIA RTX
platform, brings the most significant advancement in computer graphics in over a decade to
professional workflows. Designers and artists can now wield the power of hardware-
accelerated ray tracing, deep learning, and advanced shading to dramatically boost
productivity and create amazing content faster than ever before.
NVIDIA Quadro vDWS enables delivery of the most powerful virtual workstations from the
data center or cloud to any device, anywhere. It lets IT virtualize any application from the data
center with a native workstation user experience, eliminate constrained workflows, and
flexibly scale GPU resources to run multiple workloads. Efficiently centralize applications and
data for a dramatically lower IT operating expense and focus IT resources on managing
strategic projects versus individual workstations – all while enabling a more secure, work-
from-anywhere environment with reduced threat of data loss or leakage.

SOLUTION DETAIL
VMware vSphere provides a powerful, flexible, and secure foundation for business agility that
accelerates your digital transformation. With vSphere, you can support new workloads and
use cases while keeping pace with the growing needs and complexity of your infrastructure.
vSphere is the heart of a secure software defined data center (SDDC), securing applications,
data, infrastructure, and access. Advanced security capabilities fully integrated into the
hypervisor and powered by machine learning, provide better visibility, protection and faster
response time for security incidents. vSphere helps you run, manage, connect and secure
your applications in a common operating environment across the hybrid cloud.
Teradici Cloud Access Software with PCoIP® Ultra enhancements enables NVIDIA RTX servers
to deliver highly interactive graphics to remote users without compromise. Leveraging NVIDIA
NVENC encoding technology with security and performance benefits of the Teradici PCoIP
protocol, graphic designers, artists, and CAD/CAM users can work productively over virtually
any network.
RAVE’s seasoned teams in every department push themselves to be the best in the industry
through training and innovative learning. Our cutting-edge product development department
has its own engineering lab where masterful computer technology solutions are configured in
new, innovative ways. In addition, our product engineers have a laser focus on innovation,
creating unique systems that are consistently smaller, lighter, faster and optimized for high
performance. As a technology partner to some of the best component manufacturers around,
RAVE previews new technologies prior to launch, providing us with a key advantage in
optimization. In fact, our OEM/ISV clients view us as a part of their team, a trusted advisor, as
we facilitate alpha and beta testing plus configure systems optimized to their requirements.
