Today BOXX Technologies announced the launch of its BOXX Cloud Services (BCS). The company states that BCS is a secure, high-performance, virtual private cloud workstation service powered by professionally overclocked BOXX workstations purpose-built for enterprise organizations’ CAD applications and workflows. This gives those that work in architecture, engineering, and design the power of a BOXX workstation in a virtual private cloud.

With CAD applications single-threaded application performance is as equally important as the number of CPU cores. Noting this, BCS is purpose-built for CAD applications. The company makes the claim that its BCS cloud-hosted desktops offer performance identical to that of a high-performance desk side workstation. This would be good for times such as now where work needs to be done remotely and hauling around a huge workstation is less than ideal. It is also good in general as somethings need to be done after hours and being able to log in from home is better than returning to the office. BCS is able to achieve this through being powered by dedicated NVIDIA Quadro RTX GPUs.

While BCS is designed for the above use cases amongst others, these fields are known for expertise but not necessarily expertise in VDI or cloud hosted deployments. To help end users get the experience above, BCS leverages Teradici PCoIP technology. This gives users of CAD workflows the best possible experience whether they use an actual workstation or any notebook, desktop, thin client, zero client, or tablet.
