Dedicated servers with Open GL support or GPU support




Posted by e90boi, 10-08-2016, 08:52 PM
Hey everyone, I am trying to run this android emulator on a server and I plan to run multiple emulator per server, I have tried to run it on Amazon EC2, but it wouldn't work. The on-demand pricing works best for me since I don't really need the server running the entire month, just maybe 6-10 hours per month. The application requires Open GL support, and there for it has to run through dedicated server or has to have physical hardware support. I also need a fairly fast server, as the application I am running requires speed and good internet for faster loading screens. Does anyone have any suggestion on where I might be able to find good hosting? One, alternative I had planned was just to buy several home computers and host them at home, but I really prefer just to get one online. Suggestions are appreciated!

Looks like you need some good video card and windows? Windows license will add cost and such.... How much budget you are willing to spend? Any preferred location?

Primarily good cpu, ram, and internet, since this is mainly process based. I'm not too sure on location, but for now maybe split my servers east coast and west coast. I am pretty open with my budget, as I would like to see if buying multiple slower servers, or less servers but significantly better servers. I would like to run total of 50 emulators without losing too much performance on loading pages on the application. Just an idea, with my computer can run about 6 emulators at 90% cpu usage, 60%ish ram usage.

hello, it MUST be a dedicated and not VPS server, then RAM must be DDR3 or DDR4, DDR2 CPUs does not handle virtualization so good. if you use opengl, a videocard is required (it can be onboard)

Hey Guys, Can someone recommend dedicated servers with GPU support or Opengl 2.0 support that is located in the US? I know Baltic servers is good but is located in Europe. Thanks!

I don't know of anyone that actively advertises GPU servers, but I'm sure many companies likely have something in stock. Probably worth contacting a few providers to see what they can do for you.

A lot of providers are willing to do it, but don't publicly advertise it. Find some providers that interest you within the U.S. and contact their sales department and see if they offer servers with GPUs.

Give TailorMadeServers in Dallas a shout out. If they can't help, maybe they can guide you in the right direction.
