Virtualization

Good afternoon.
Please recommend what to do in situations:
1) Make a local server (tell me the hardware) on which graphics programs are installed (I emphasize graphics, that is, in addition to processing by the processor and RAM, you also need good video cards). At the start, make at least 3-5 users who could connect to it from their computers and work with these programs remotely at the same time (that is, the server must provide resources for each user).
2) Buy somewhere remote hosting with the same requirements as described above).
Can you please tell me how realistic this is?
Sincerely.

And so and so will not work, in general, fumbling with some powerful applications that work with graphics is not realistic at the moment.
At least the vidyuha will not cope and it is also not easy to use it in the remote desktop, well, and if one has loaded a percent for everything, is it sucking its paw?

@yurikan

it will be cheaper to build your own server, because renting a powerful vps is now expensive :\
this is taking into account the fact that it will serve you for a long time to recoup the costs

I had a concept for a long time: work with accounting, databases - remotely on the server in the terminal (at the same time, the server's video card is not used), work with CAD programs, 3D design, Corel, Photoshop, layout, etc. - exclusively on powerful personal computers with professional or just discrete video cards and on normal monitors.
Now something has changed - is it possible to use video cards remotely?

Windows Server + RemoteFX, KVM+GPUForwarding, etc. By the way, KVM + Spice + GPU at 10 Mbps and you will get the opportunity to work very well with graphics on a remote VM. Only under each VM you need a separate video card.
But for your case, it seems to me that Windows Server + RemoteFX is the most.

As an option: Citrix XenDesktop + Nvidia Grid. 3-5 users per server is realistic, but the servers themselves are not very cheap ( www.nvidia.com/object/xen-desktop.html).
