Get end-to-end management including environment setup, plugin configuration, performance tuning, and ongoing support, ensuring a consistent and optimized experience for BIM and VDC teams.
OpEx Model & Scalability
Shift from heavy upfront capital expenditure to a predictable monthly operating expense. Scale GPUs up or down based on project phase, so you don't pay for RTX 8000 power when you're just doing 2D drafting.

VPNs are too slow for Revit.
Centralized Data Environment
Instead of moving gigabytes of data through a VPN tunnel to a local laptop, Ace Cloud Hosting’s DaaS streams only encrypted display pixels to the user while the data and compute remain inside the cloud data center.
Decentralized storage leads to sync errors and rework
Single Source of Truth
With virtual desktops, project data remains inside the secure cloud environment. Every team member accesses the exact same central model. No more "Final_Final_v2.rvt" on a consultant's laptop.
Scaling offshore teams takes weeks, not minutes
Global Secure Access
Spin up a secure, high-performance workstation for a contractor in minutes. Get a secure window into your project without ever downloading the source files.
Centralize your BIM applications and project data in the cloud and let your teams work from anywhere with high-performance desktops.

| Operational Area | Local GPU Workstations | GPU-Powered VDI |
|---|---|---|
| Hardware Lifecycle | Requires full workstation; refresh every few years to keep up with larger BIM models. | GPU resources can be scaled or upgraded without replacing physical devices. |
| Performance Consistency | Performance varies based on individual machine specs and age. | Standardized virtual desktops deliver consistent CPU, RAM, and GPU allocation. |
| Large Model Access | Opening federated models over VPN can cause slow loads and sync issues. | Compute runs near centralized storage, reducing latency during model access. |
| GPU Memory (vRAM) | Fixed GPU memory may lead to viewport freezes or crashes in complex 3D views. | vGPU profiles allow appropriate frame buffer allocation based on workload. |
| Remote Work Experience | VPN/RDP setups often introduce lag during orbit, pan, and rendering. | GPU-accelerated display protocols improve responsiveness for remote users. |
| Collaboration | Multiple file servers across offices increase version control challenges. | A centralized environment supports controlled, shared project access. |
| IT Management | Driver updates and configurations must be managed device-by-device. | Centralized image management ensures uniform drivers and configurations. |
| Data Security | Project files stored locally increased risk of data loss or theft. | Data remains in secured infrastructure with controlled access policies. |
| Scalability | Adding designers requires purchasing and configuring new hardware. | Virtual desktops can be provisioned quickly to meet project demands. |
| Infrastructure Overhead | Requires on-prem power, cooling, and maintenance. | Reduces dependency on physical server rooms and hardware upkeep. |

Yes, the infrastructure provided includes dedicated vGPU frame buffer allocation and high-IOPS storage.
Large federated models, linked files, and heavy worksharing environments often crash when local VRAM and RAM limits are exhausted. In a GPU-powered Cloud VDI environment, Revit/CAD and other 3D model processing run inside a centralized data center GPU node, eliminating workstation bottlenecks. This ensures stable performance during model regeneration, view template switching, and complex sheet exports.
When these infrastructure components are properly architected, virtual workstations outperforms traditional workstation + VPN setups.
