Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for graphics library virtualization for virtualized graphics processing are disclosed. An application is executed on a virtual compute instance with a virtual GPU attached over a network. The virtual compute instance is implemented using a physical compute instance, and the virtual GPU is implemented using a physical GPU. The virtual compute instance comprises a first graphics library and an intermediate driver configured to translate calls from the first graphics library to a second graphics library. One or more calls by the application to the first graphics library are translated, using the intermediate driver, to one or more equivalent calls to the second graphics library. The one or more equivalent calls are executed on the virtual GPU using a driver associated with the second graphics library, and output is generated based (at least in part) on execution of the one or more equivalent calls.
