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.

Famous quotes containing the words commercial and/or solutions:
“From a commercial point of view, if Christmas did not exist it would be necessary to invent it.”
—Katharine Whitehorn (b. 1926)
“The anorexic prefigures this culture in rather a poetic fashion by trying to keep it at bay. He refuses lack. He says: I lack nothing, therefore I shall not eat. With the overweight person, it is the opposite: he refuses fullness, repletion. He says, I lack everything, so I will eat anything at all. The anorexic staves off lack by emptiness, the overweight person staves off fullness by excess. Both are homeopathic final solutions, solutions by extermination.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
