This robust commercial solution for running high performance games and desktop applications on the Web without plugins, demonstrates the power of the Web as a platform for software development and distribution.\u201d<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;As we launched our latest Amazon EC2 instance type to bring further capabilities to our customers today, we are excited to collaborate with OTOY to extend the reach of this powerful and disruptive technology,&#8221; said Matt Wood, General Manager, Data Science at AWS. &#8220;The combination of OTOY and Amazon EC2 G2 instances provides an immediate and compelling solution for customers looking to build graphics-intensive applications on top of these instances.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cDesigners and engineers have an increasing need to be mobile, accessing the tools they need anytime, anywhere and from any device. Simple viewing and mark-up of documents is no longer sufficient \u2013 they need to be able to access powerful 3D design applications, be able to do real design work and not worry about sacrificing performance,\u201d said Jeff Kowalski, Chief Technology Officer at Autodesk. \u201cThis is now possible with technology made possible by Autodesk, Amazon and OTOY.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;With this news, AWS infrastructure can be leveraged to deploy high-performance NVIDIA GRID GPU graphics on-demand, not only to thin-clients, but also to any HTML5 webpage using ORBX.js. &#8220;The OTOY ORBX AMI is the easiest way for Software-as-a-Service companies to immediately access the video streaming capabilities in NVIDIA GRID instances,&#8221; said Steven Parker, GM of Professional Design and Visualization, NVIDIA. &#8220;Many graphics-intensive applications, from Autodesk 3D design software to games, can be hosted by AWS on NVIDIA GRID GPUs and streamed using OTOY software to a browser on any device.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Mozilla, we work to move the Web forward as the platform for creating and consuming great experiences.
