solidworks2016:全新云計算軟件在線使用

寂靜天花板

Do you remember way back in 2010, when SolidWorks was going to be available anytime, anywhere? Well, that’s finally happening… maybe, kinda. On September 22nd, at the SolidWorks 2016 Launch Event in Boston, Gian Paolo Bassi demonstrated what he called ‘SolidWorks Online Edition’, his ‘favorite feature,’ being the one that puts the 300 innovations in SolidWorks ‘on your fingertips, in one way, very cheaply, and very quickly.’
早在solidworks2010，solidworks就準備提供隨時使用服務，現在終于發生了，在美國波士頓的solidworks2016啟動儀式上，CEO吉安巴斯說證明了所謂的solidworks在線版的存在，他說，最喜愛的功能，solidworks300個功能創新在你指尖上跳動，以一種非常便宜的方式，而且速度非常快。

" N. ?6 V9 r4 h  B$ l4 U$ Q: l/ w+ j. RImmediately, we knew the technology behind SolidWorks Online Edition was Frame, the platform for running any software in a web browser, officially launched in July 2015. However, no mention of or reference to Frame was made. We asked SolidWorks afterwards if it was in fact running on Frame, but they were ‘not disclosing’ the technology yet as there were many components making it possible. Fortunately, Frame posted a video to their Youtube channel titled SOLIDWORKS 2016 Online Edition — Powered by Frame–a video of Gian Paolo presenting SolidWorks Online Edition during the launch.
隨后，我們知道solidworks在線版背后的技術是frame公司的運行于web瀏覽器的軟件服務，然而在7月份時，還沒有提及使用frame公司的平臺。frame公司提供了自己在youtube頻道上的一個視頻，標題就叫solidworks2016在線版

frame公司簡介:
以前叫Mainframe2，an innovator in virtualized software delivery and the leader in bringing Windows applications into the cloud instantly, today announced the public BETA of its new end-user product, furthering its leadership role in bringing the CAD industry into the cloud environment. Frame is exhibiting (Booths 8 and 9) at the Develop3D Live conference in Warwick, UK, as well as participating on a panel on the future of CAD in the cloud with other top industry executives.

we envisioned a platform that combines the best of the cloud’s flexibility with the power and reliability of desktop software,” said Dr. Nikola Bozinovic, Founder and CEO of Frame.  “Frame is the only platform that enables engineers and designers to install and run the CAD of their choice on any device. We’re excited to share it with the world for the first time at Develop3D Live.”

Frame’s new end-user product will have universal appeal since it will allow people to move any Windows application to a Cloud environment instantly. The company has chosen to place its first focus on the CAD, Design and AEC industries because of its unique ability to handle even the most intense graphics tasks easily while preserving high quality.

Key features of Frame include full compatibility with any existing Windows software, the ability to connect to any PDM or cloud storage, and unrivaled graphics performance. Even the most demanding graphics tasks run smoothly from the cloud super-computer powered by NVIDIA GRID graphics.

“Seeing SOLIDWORKS running in a browser was unbelievable,” said Jared Conway, Professional Engineer from Hawk Ridge Systems, the #1 Worldwide SOLIDWORKS reseller.  “The cursor response was crisp and assemblies rotated smoothly even with RealView enabled.  Overall, the SOLIDWORKS experience on Frame was top notch.”

Mainframe2由來自MotionDSP公司的圖形處理行業老兵創建，Nikola Bozinovic博士擔任首席執行官一職。Mainframe2承諾用戶能在云端運行任何windows應用，包括AutoCAD或Adobe Photoshop等，而無需購買昂貴的工作站硬件。

, e, b3 Y7 s& p! c0 P用戶只需要用任何支持HTML5的瀏覽器登錄Mainframe2的網站，就能隨時訪問他們的應用，無需安裝Java或Flash之類的插件。應用以H.264視頻流的方式從云端傳輸到設備終端（編碼采用NVIDIA、Intel和AMD提供的技術），雖然beta測試版本只采用了Chrome，但據Mainframe首席執行官透露Mainframe2實際上已經能夠支持Safari，這意味著iPad和iPhone等蘋果設備用戶也可以使用這項服務，不過Mainframe2目前正在加緊解決其他瀏覽器的兼容性問題。

Mainframe2的技術理論上可以在云端運行任何windows軟件，但是Bozinovic表示公司將遠離云游戲(不做Onlive，但使用的是與Onlive類似的nVIDIA的虛擬GPU技術)，專注于利潤較高的專業軟件市場，尤其是設計、CAD和HPC高性能計算可視化。Bozinovic認為：
  N( c; \2 c7 `; b. \- T! @ 值得注意的是，Mainframe2所提供的面向設計師的云計算應用實際上是讓用戶遠程訪問2D和3D設計軟件如Adobe的Creative Suite，但與Adobe公司的Creative Cloud以及很多云計算服務走了不同的技術路線，Mainframe2既不是VNC（虛擬網絡客戶端）或RDP（遠程桌面），也沒有采用VMware或Citrix的VDI桌面虛擬化技術。Mainframe2采用了一種全新的動態資源擴展技術，用戶可以隨時無限制增加CPU和GPU，這也是Mainframe2號稱“主機二代”的原因所在。

將過去30年的傳統軟件轉移到云端是一件艱苦卓絕的事情，類似AutoCAD這樣的軟件為web重新編寫極為困難，耗時且昂貴。
