NVIDIA GRID Certifications DA-07184-001_v04 | ii
The NVIDIA GRID
™
certification process is to ensure that NVIDIA GRID
graphics
processing units (GPUs) and NVIDIA drivers are certified by industry leading
independent software vendors (ISVs) in a VDI environment. This certification process
guarantees that the graphics performance and experience is the same for users in a
virtualized environment as they have at their desk.
The NVIDIA GRID certified driver is based directly on the driver that has over a decade
of professional testing. This driver has over 100 ISV certifications across all industries
(certified drivers
). We are deploying the same, reliable driver in the virtualized
environment on a mature hypervisor stack. In the last year of testing our partners have
not found one driver bug in a VDI environment and we expect that trend to continue.

The NVIDIA GRID certification center provides the complete environment for the
ISV’s to test applications remotely through leading virtualization infrastructures.
The ISVs remotely log into NVIDIA’s certification center to test NVIDIA’s driver
with their application on either of the following two deployment models.
●
NVIDIA GPU Pass-Through Technology: Each virtual machine has a dedicated
GPU by using NVIDIA GPU pass-through technology
●
