Commercial Solutions Using VirtualGL
VirtualGL and TurboVNC were core components of the Sun Visualization System product from Sun Microsystems, which was discontinued in April 2009. The two open source packages were combined with a closed source plugin that allowed VirtualGL to send compressed images to Sun Ray thin clients and another closed source package that integrated VirtualGL with Sun Grid Engine, providing resource management and scheduling for remote 3D jobs. The combination of these packages, dubbed "Sun Shared Visualization", was available as a free download (Sun charged for support.)
v2.1 of the Scalable Visualization Array software from HP also includes components that integrate with VirtualGL and TurboVNC, allowing 3D jobs to be scheduled on and remotely displayed from a visualization cluster.
v3.0.0 of ThinLinc is designed to work in conjunction with VirtualGL.
v2010 of EnginFrame Views supports VirtualGL as one of the remote protocol options.
The Exceed onDemand and Exceed Freedom products from OpenText use code from VirtualGL to implement server side rendering.
