Industry-Leading Applications Awarded Certifications to AMD FirePro R5000 GPU Cloud Solution

─ Crea­ti­ve and engi­nee­ring pro­fes­sio­nals to bene­fit from cer­ti­fied and fea­ture-rich appli­ca­ti­on per­for­mance with the AMD Fire­Pro R5000 remo­te GPU cloud solution ─

SUNNYVALE, Calif. Feb. 27, 2014 – Today AMD (NYSE: AMD) announ­ced that the AMD Fire­Pro™ R5000 remo­te gra­phics card has been ful­ly tes­ted and cer­ti­fied by Auto­desk®, Bent­ley®, Das­sault Sys­tè­mes and Sie­mens PLM soft­ware,  empowe­ring  secu­re and remo­te pro­fes­sio­nal gra­phics appli­ca­ti­on per­for­mance in the cloud.  The AMD Fire­Pro™ R5000 is a sin­gle-card remo­te gra­phics solu­ti­on cer­ti­fied for seve­ral appli­ca­ti­ons from the­se lea­ding CAD/CAE/CAM soft­ware pro­vi­ders. A one-of-a-kind solu­ti­on, the AMD Fire­Pro™ R5000 unites a pro­fes­sio­nal-gra­de gra­phics pro­ces­sing unit (GPU) and the Teradi­ci TERA2240 PCoIP host pro­ces­sor into a sin­gle-width PCI Express 3.0 card.  The AMD remo­te gra­phics solu­ti­on is desi­gned for main­stream CAD/CAE/CAM work­flows that requi­re high-per­forming gra­phics capa­bi­li­ties in the cloud.

The cur­rent list of cer­ti­fied appli­ca­ti­ons[i] includes:

Auto­desk®
• Auto­CAD® 2014/2013/2012
• Inven­tor® 2014
• Revit® 2014/2013/2012

Bent­ley®
• Micro­Sta­ti­on V8i (SEL­ECT­se­ries 3)

Das­sault Systèmes

Sie­mens PLM Software
NX 8.5/8.0
• Team­cen­ter Visua­liza­ti­on 8.01/8.0/2007
• Tec­no­ma­tix 9.1.2
• Solid Edge ST6

The­se cer­ti­fi­ca­ti­ons are a true tes­ta­ment to AMD’s soft­ware sup­port and our com­mit­ment to deve­lo­ping mar­ket-lea­ding pro­fes­sio­nal gra­phics solu­ti­ons,” said David Cum­mings, seni­or direc­tor and gene­ral mana­ger, Pro­fes­sio­nal Gra­phics at AMD. “Ulti­m­ate­ly, we are proud to pro­vi­de a con­sis­tent, world-class expe­ri­ence for our work­sta­tion users. With the AMD Fire­Pro R5000 remo­te gra­phics, we enable design and engi­nee­ring pro­fes­sio­nals to work effec­tively and more pro­duc­tively in a cloud environment.”

CAD, CAE and CAM work­sta­tion users demand uncom­pro­mi­sed remo­te access to fea­ture-rich 3D con­tent and gra­phics acce­le­ra­ti­on and we’re proud to work with AMD to deli­ver that using AMD Fire­Pro R5000 remo­te gra­phics,” said Oli­vi­er Fav­re, direc­tor of pro­duct manage­ment, Teradi­ci.  “Tog­e­ther, AMD and Teradi­ci are deli­ve­ring a secu­re remo­te work­sta­tion expe­ri­ence to users of high per­for­mance gra­phics appli­ca­ti­ons in the cloud. For power users on-the-go, Teradi­ci PCoIP Soft­ware Cli­ents and Zero Cli­ents enable remo­te work­sta­tion mobi­li­ty and full-per­for­mance access in the enterprise.”

The AMD Fire­Pro™ R5000 remo­te gra­phics GPU deli­vers the following:

·         True 3D, mul­ti-moni­tor desk­top expe­ri­ence enab­led over stan­dard IP net­works via pro­ven  trans­mis­si­on and com­pres­si­on technology

·         Low TCO by allo­wing work­sta­tions to be cen­tra­li­zed in local or remo­te sites

·         More fle­xi­ble sea­ting arran­ge­ments for IT depart­ments by giving users access to their appli­ca­ti­ons from any device and taking advan­ta­ge of PCoIP clients

·         Remo­te dis­play capa­bi­li­ty for up to four 1920x1200 reso­lu­ti­on moni­tors per user with com­pa­ti­ble zero cli­ent device or Teradici’s new­ly released soft­ware client

·         A secu­re com­pu­ting envi­ron­ment allo­wing trans­mis­si­ons to be encrypt­ed and only pixel trans­mis­si­on bet­ween the AMD Fire­Pro R5000 and the zero cli­ent at each user’s desk

Addi­tio­nal­ly, the AMD Fire­Pro™ R5000 is tes­ted and cer­ti­fied for use with the HP t310 Zero Cli­ent and HP Z420 and Z620 work­sta­tions, enab­ling secu­re, relia­ble access to models and designs.
