Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for graphics overlays with virtualized graphics processing are disclosed. A virtual GPU is attached to a virtual compute instance. The virtual compute instance is implemented using a physical compute instance, and the virtual GPU is implemented using a physical GPU accessible to the physical instance over a network. An application is executed on the virtual compute instance. One or more graphics instructions associated with the application are sent to the virtual GPU. The virtual GPU is used to generate graphical output based (at least in part) on execution of the one or more graphics instructions. A graphics overlay comprising one or more additional graphical elements is added to the graphical output based (at least in part) on execution of one or more additional graphics instructions. The one or more additional graphics instructions are not generated by the execution of the application.
