Abstract

The claimed subject matter includes techniques for live migration of a graphics processing unit (GPU) state. An example method includes receiving recorded GPU commands from a relay at a destination GPU. The method also includes replaying the recorded GPU commands at the destination GPU. The method also includes detecting a downtime for the GPU commands. The method further includes establishing a connection between the destination GPU and the client during the detected downtime.
