This is a Linux remote desktop based on the NVIDIA GRID driver and NICE DCV. After starting, users can remotely access it directly through a browser or NICE DCV client using a graphical interface, so they can easily start working on cloud office, cloud design, cloud rendering, cloud gaming, etc. Remote Desktop targets the Amazon Web Serviecs G4 instance and is pre-installed with a GRID driver suitable for NVIDIA T4 video cards to better support scenes such as graphics rendering and remote desktop display; the NICE DCV server side is pre-installed to support high-quality remote desktop connections. Remote Desktop is cloud-based, so users can complete projects from the office, home, or anywhere using an internet-connected computer.

The Amazon EC2 G4 instance is equipped with an NVIDIA T4 video card and requires a corresponding GPU driver to work with it. The official Amazon Web Services documentation provides installation steps for drivers that NVIDIA has authorized for G4 instances, such as Tesla, GRID, and Gaming, to meet the needs of different scenarios. Among them, GRID drivers provide the best performance for professional visualization applications that render content such as 3D models or high-resolution video. Remote Desktop comes pre-installed with a GRID driver to help users save time and effort from manual installation.

NICE DCV is a high performance remote display protocol that provides users with a secure and efficient way to transfer remote desktops to local devices, and is free to use on Amazon EC2. Remote Desktop comes pre-installed with the NICE DCV server-side software and is configured to automatically launch the software and sessions, helping users save time and effort from manual installation and configuration.

Combined with the pre-installed NVIDIA GRID driver and NICE DCV server-side software, users can directly start using CentOS's remote desktop function without configuration after the instance is launched. Remote Desktop is built on CentOS 7.
