Dudek's on-premises infrastructure, including physical GPU workstations and a legacy VDI solution, was limiting agility and innovation and slowing project delivery to its clients. The firm needed the data collected from drone flights at project sites to be actionable more quickly – at the cloud-edge. They also needed to alleviate performance problems brought on by latency for survey engineers in the field and in branch offices. The challenges of improving performance for GPU-intensive workloads, in addition to the cost and complexity of maintaining on-premises VDI, brought Dudek to Workspot Workstation Cloud.

Brian Nordmann, chief information officer, Dudek, said: "Our survey engineers, whether they are in our headquarters, in a remote office or out in the field, are delighted with the performance they are seeing when using ArcGIS on their Workspot cloud workstations. We're planning to deploy cloud PCs to the rest of our employees for secure, fast access to all their corporate apps, no matter where they are. Workspot dramatically decreased our time to get deliverables into the hands of our clients, giving us a competitive advantage."

Workspot Workstation Cloud provides turnkey, enterprise-ready, cloud PCs and workstations powered by NVIDIA GPUs and virtualization software on Microsoft Azure. Benefits of Dudek's cloud workstations include:

Harry Labana, chief customer officer, Workspot, said: "Firms like Dudek are innovating to transform the AEC industry with their use of cloud workstations to address complex use cases requiring high-performance computing, and that's a great boost to their productivity. Workspot's on-demand, cloud PC service is based on a globally distributed architecture, which means organizations in any industry can instantly have a global presence across 54+ Azure cloud regions. This level of flexibility and agility drives endless possibilities for our customers' business growth."
