Winners of the Best of VMworld 2020 Awards

Both VMworld 2020 Disruptive Technology winners provide a unique value proposition to businesses that have specific needs, but judges noted that these products could soon appeal to a wider range of customers as more companies adopt demanding artificial intelligence and machine learning workloads. Our second Judges' Choice winner was recognized for the company's ongoing innovation and year-over-year improvements to GPU-acceleration technology.

Winner: Nvidia, Virtual Compute Server (vCS)

What the judges said: "The ability to fractionalize and share the GPU is going to be big, because AI and [machine learning] are really beginning to actually tax and leverage GPU usage."
