Keep on Creating at Home
The world recently has become a very different place, with so many of us working remotely at home, staying safe with our families, and supporting all the essential and healthcare workers on the frontlines of the current crisis.
While some professionals are already used to working remotely, already equipped with a workstation desktop at home or using a powerful workstation notebook (such as the AMD Radeon Pro-powered HP ZBook 14u and 15u Mobile Workstations*) -- there are still many 3d artists, architects, designers, and engineers who need remote access to a more powerful system to get their work done.
Thankfully, AMD has several technologies and partnerships that can help both individual professionals and IT managers to overcome some of the challenges they are facing and better enable themselves or their teams to work from home.
Our offerings encompass both remotely connecting to the existing workstation hardware already on your office desk or in your company’s server rack using AMD Remote Workstation1, AMD powered Microsoft Azure NVv4 virtual desktops and workstations in the cloud, and AMD Radeon Pro ReLive, our professional-grade solution for high-resolution screen capture, recording, and video streaming.
Below are some links to resources where you can learn more about our remote working technologies, along with some links to useful articles from some of our partners.
