Proxmox VE is an NVIDIA vGPU Supported Hypervisor

Enterprise software developer Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH announced that its open-source virtualization management platform, Proxmox Virtual Environment (Proxmox VE), is the newest addition to the NVIDIA vGPU supported hypervisors.

Starting with NVIDIA vGPU 18, this enables GPU virtualization across the Proxmox hypervisor, enhancing compatibility and performance for users operating in this environment. Enterprises using Proxmox VE can now take advantage of NVIDIA vGPU to run graphics-intensive and AI development workloads in virtualized environments. This partnership marks another step in a series of recent efforts to empower enterprise customers with enhanced features, official support, and continued open access.

Sharing a GPU across VMs on virtualization platforms like Proxmox VE offers enterprises significant cost and efficiency benefits, reducing idle time through resource sharing, and improves scalability, allowing multiple GPU-accelerated tasks to run on the same hardware. Proxmox and NVIDIA Corp. work together to enable integration and support between their solutions.

“Deploying NVIDIA vGPU software on Proxmox VE is seamless. The integration makes it easy to verify the performance needed to support various compute-intensive workloads and manage GPU utilization efficiently. Now we can quickly adjust resources to ensure an optimal user experience.” says Daire Byrne, global head, systems, DNEG, an award-winning creative studio.

Availability:
Technical enterprise support for NVIDIA vGPU software on Proxmox VE is available requiring a Proxmox subscription level of Basic, Standard, or Premium as well as an NVIDIA vGPU entitlement.

For optimal performance in production workloads, enterprise-grade hardware is recommended. To verify hardware compatibility, consult the NVIDIA Qualified System Catalog for detailed information.
