Introductions
Jared Conway, Product Manager - NVIDIA GRID VCA– 9 years with Hawk Ridge Systems– Also manages the Analysis Services group at HRS– Previously held positions of Applications Engineer and
Technical Support Manager– “Seen it all”, technical sales, training, technical support and service– Mostly focused on Simulation/COSMOS but also dabbled in
SolidWorks, with a focus on licensing, installation, implementation, hardware, and performance

“The Cloud”
Definition is actually Definitions– “…synonym for distributed computing…”– “…network-based services which appear to be provided by real
server hardware, and are in fact served up by virtual hardware…”– “…metaphor for the internet…”– “…software, platforms, and infrastructure that are provided as a
service remotely through the internet…”
Examples– Google Mail (Gmail), Microsoft Office 365, Salesforce.com and AWS
(Amazon Web Services)

Key Topics for “The Cloud”
Consolidate: Single location for all resources
Flexible: Use resources when you want
Leverage: Maximize the usage of your resources
Remote: Access resources from anywhere
Convenient: Make the resources easy to use
Efficient: Maximize efficiency for aspects of providing the functionality

“The Cloud” for SolidWorks
Mechanical Conceptual and Industrial Conceptual
Resources: Licenses, Installations, Hardware, and Design Files
Tool Resource(s) Key Topic(s) Influenced
Network Licenses Licenses Consolidate, Flexible, Leverage, Convenient
Administrative Image Installations Consolidate, Convenient, Efficient
Enterprise PDM Design Files Consolidate

What about Hardware and Remote?
Hardware– Shared Systems and “Sneaker Network”– Achieves some goals of consolidation, flexibility and leverage but not
efficient or convenient
Remote– VPN, Remote Desktop, GoToMeeting, LogMeIn– Experience is bearable but lacks GPU acceleration and limits
productivity due to mouse lag and latency
