METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR A COMMON-ATTRIBUTE VIRTUAL DESKTOP INFRASTRUCTURE (VDI) ENVIRONMENT WITH TIERED GRAPHICS PROCESSING UNIT (GPU) CAPABILITIES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17723028 Titled 'METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR A COMMON-ATTRIBUTE VIRTUAL DESKTOP INFRASTRUCTURE (VDI) ENVIRONMENT WITH TIERED GRAPHICS PROCESSING UNIT (GPU) CAPABILITIES'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for managing a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environment. This method involves obtaining different configuration templates for a target resource, which in this case is a graphics processing unit (GPU). These templates are associated with virtual desktop (VD) pools. Additionally, a common configuration template set is obtained. Using these templates, a configuration is generated for each VD pool. A default VD pool is selected, and a number of virtual desktops (VDs) are deployed into this default pool based on its associated configuration.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for managing a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environment includes: obtaining a plurality of target resource specific pool specific configuration templates for a target resource, in which each of the plurality of target resource specific pool specific configuration templates is associated with one or a plurality of virtual desktop (VD) pools, in which the target resource is a graphics processing unit (GPU); obtaining a common configuration template set; generating a VD pool configuration for each of the plurality of VD pools using the plurality of target resource specific pool specific configuration templates and the common configuration template set to obtain a plurality of VD pool configurations; selecting a default VD pool from the plurality of VD pools; and deploying, based on the selection, a plurality of VDs into the default VD pool using a VD pool configuration associated with the default VD pool.
