Abstract
Techniques for implementing 3DI API redirection for VDI desktops are provided. In one set of embodiments, a server system can intercept a call to a 3D API made by a 3D application running within a VM on the server system, where the VM hosts a desktop that is presented to a user of a client system. The server system can determine metadata associated with the call, where the metadata including a name of the 3D API and one or more input parameter values to the call, and can transmit the metadata to the client system. In response, the client system can reconstruct the call to the 3D API using the metadata and execute the call using one or more physical GPUs residing on the client system.
