Lenovo 7S02000GWW NVIDIA Quadro Vdws Subscrip LIC 1Y 1CCU

Lenovo 7S02000GWW NVIDIA Quadro Virtual Data Center Workstation Subscription License

Overview

The Lenovo 7S02000GWW is a one-year, single concurrent-user (1 CCU) subscription license for NVIDIA Quadro Virtual Data Center Workstation (vDWS) software. vDWS enables GPU-accelerated virtual workstations hosted on data center hardware, allowing engineers, designers, and analysts to access full Quadro-class graphics performance from any endpoint — without a dedicated workstation at every desk. A 1 CCU license means one user can run an active vDWS session at any given time, making this entry-level unit appropriate for piloting the platform or supporting a single high-demand remote user on existing virtualization infrastructure.

Key Features

• GPU Virtualization for Professional Workloads: vDWS exposes the full NVIDIA Quadro feature set — including ECC memory, display driver APIs, and certified ISV application support — to virtualized sessions. This matters for CAD, simulation, and media workflows that require certified driver environments rather than consumer-grade GPU passthrough.
• Concurrent-User Licensing Model: The 1 CCU structure licenses by active session rather than by named user. If your user base works in shifts or requires occasional access rather than always-on sessions, a smaller CCU pool can support more total users than equivalent named-user licenses — reducing total license spend on bursty workloads.
• Annual Subscription: The one-year term keeps the license on a known renewal cycle. Subscription delivery means you receive software entitlement and support access for the license period without perpetual license overhead — useful when project scope or headcount may shift year over year.
• Lenovo Commercial Channel: Sourced through standard commercial distribution, this SKU is compatible with Lenovo ThinkSystem and ThinkAgile infrastructure running NVIDIA-certified hypervisors (VMware vSphere, Citrix, Microsoft RDS/AVD). Verify your host server has a supported NVIDIA data center GPU (A-series or RTX Enterprise) before deploying.

Integration & Compatibility

vDWS requires a compatible NVIDIA data center GPU installed in the host server and a supported hypervisor. The 7S02000GWW license entitlement is managed through the NVIDIA License System (NLS) or legacy NVIDIA vGPU Software License Server — confirm which licensing portal your environment uses before purchase. Client endpoints connect via standard remoting protocols (PCoIP, Blast Extreme, RDP with GPU acceleration); no client-side GPU is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does the 1 CCU in the Lenovo 7S02000GWW license mean?

A: CCU stands for Concurrent User. The 1 CCU license allows one active vDWS session to run at a time across your infrastructure. Multiple named users can share this license as long as only one session is active simultaneously.

Q: What server hardware is required to use the 7S02000GWW license?

A: You need a host server with a supported NVIDIA data center GPU (such as an A-series or RTX Enterprise card) and a compatible hypervisor (VMware vSphere, Citrix Hypervisor, or Microsoft environments). The license itself does not include hardware.

Q: Is this license renewable after the one-year term expires?

A: Yes, vDWS subscriptions are designed to renew annually. At expiration, active vDWS sessions will no longer be licensed until the subscription is renewed or replaced.

Q: Does this license cover multiple users?

A: The 7S02000GWW covers one concurrent session. For environments requiring multiple simultaneous vDWS sessions, you would need additional CCU licenses to match your peak concurrent user count.
