Disclosed are various examples for platform independent graphics processing unit (GPU) profiles for more efficient utilization of GPU resources. A virtual machine configuration can be identified to include a platform independent graphics computing requirement. Hosts can be identified as available in a computing environment based on the platform independent graphics computing requirement. The virtual machines can be migrated and placed to maximize usage the total memory of GPU resources of the hosts.

Platform independent GPU profiles for more efficient utilization of GPU resources

Disclosed are various examples for platform independent graphics processing unit (GPU) profiles for more efficient utilization of GPU resources. A virtual machine configuration can be identified to include a platform independent graphics computing requirement. Hosts can be identified as available in a computing environment based on the platform independent graphics computing requirement. The virtual machine can be placed on a host based on a consideration of host priority.

Disclosed are various examples for platform independent graphics processing unit (GPU) profiles for more efficient utilizes of GPU resources. A computing device can identify a platform independent configuration of a virtual machine, such as one made by an administrator, that indicates that a virtual graphics processing unit (vGPU) is to be utilized in execution, where the configuration comprising a graphics computing requirement for the virtual machine. The computing device can identify one or more hosts available in a computing environment to place the virtual machine, where each of the plurality of hosts comprises at least one GPU. The computing device can identify a most suitable one of the hosts to place the virtual machine based at least in part on the graphics computing requirement and whether a preferred graphics card was specified.
