Overview

  • This design guide describes technical considerations and best practices for sharing GPU resources and accelerating VDI and AI workloads on the same infrastructure in a healthcare environment.

    The design integrates VMware Horizon 8 on Dell vSAN Ready Nodes, with VMware vSAN storage and VMware vSphere virtualization, and uses NVIDIA L40GPUs and NVIDIA vWS software to create GPU-accelerated virtual application and desktop environments.

    By implementing a shared common platform for VDI and AI workloads that increases GPU utilization, organizations in the healthcare industry can take advantage of several benefits. These include lowering their TCO, improving the mobility of their employees, and experiencing high performance for both VDI graphics and AI workloads, thus improving the overall efficiency of their day-to-day operating environment.

    Modern IT infrastructure from Dell Technologies helps facilitate next-generation medical imaging applications by providing critical solutions and partnerships. These benefits allow healthcare organizations to balance clinical requirements with the resources needed to deliver a unified medical imaging solution. Shifting from disconnected departmental figure archiving and communication system (PACS) instances to interoperable medical imaging solutions allows clinicians, researchers, and healthcare systems to:
    • Ingest and analyze data in real time
    • Limit potential liability exposure by retaining images based on regulatory and compliance requirements
    • Improve outcomes by seamlessly sharing data with collaborators, patients, and other healthcare-life science organizations

    Dell Technologies has extensive experience in VDI solutions and a wide selection of compute, storage, and networking for VDI. Tested and validated Dell Technologies VDI Solutions, based on VMware Horizon and configured with NVIDIA vGPUs, offer exceptional graphics performance and predictable cost, and provide a single vendor support experience. With VDI solutions from Dell Technologies, you can streamline the design and implementation process, and be assured that you have a solution that is optimized for performance, density, and cost-effectiveness.
