What are flexible GPUs?

Flexible GPUs (fGPUs) are resources used for the graphic rendering of your virtual machines (VMs) and large parallel computation in the Cloud.

GPUs were previously provided only through specific virtual machine (VM) types which automatically included one or more GPUs (for example, the mv3 type). With fGPUs, you can freely attach or detach them to or from any VM type. For more information, see About Flexible GPUs.

Actions on fGPUs can be done through:

• The OUTSCALE API. For more information, see the OUTSCALE API methods FlexibleGpu.
• Cockpit v1. For more information, see Flexible GPUs (fGPUs).
