Kinamo’s META greetings VERSE
Are you ready for some more festive greetings? We hope so: here are our best wishes for you, our customers, partners, team and friends.
Because the best wishes phenomenon would be rather incomplete without actual “best wishes”, here is what we hope that 2023 brings you: good health, happiness, and prosperity.
Is there anything else on your wish list for 2023? Do let us know! Who knows, it might involve Kinamo bringing you a solution for one of your business challenges or just us, applying some “out of the box” thinking. We can at least try to make your wish come true.
We hope you have another 3 minutes for us because creating original best wishes in our own unique Kinamo style is something we take very seriously. Really, we do!

2021, a year behind the scenes

But here and now in this post, we ‘celebrate’ the gems of code which the Kinamo team has created for many customers in 2021.
Read MoreInstalling NVIDIA vGPU driver for ESXi through vCenter lifecycle manager
As an NVIDIA Solution Advisor, Kinamo maintains a VMware vSphere cluster for a VMware Horizon VDI deployment of one of our customers. The ESXi hardware hosts are equipped with NVIDIA Tesla GPUs to accelerate graphical processing for the clients.
NVIDIA Virtual GPU (vGPU) enables multiple virtual machines (VMs) to have simultaneous, direct access to a single physical GPU, using the same NVIDIA graphics drivers that are deployed on non-virtualized operating systems.
Installing NVIDIA vGPU ensures that all of our client virtual desktops have unparalleled graphics performance, computing performance and application compatibility, together with the cost-effectiveness and scalability brought by sharing a GPU among multiple workloads.
This article covers how to install the NVIDIA vGPU for ESXI through vCenter lifecycle manager, in detail.

We love you
Happy Valentine! Hate it or love it! On the 14th of February, the topic of the day is Valentine. The fact is that we should all love each other more. And why not use Valentine’s as a pretext to amplify to love each other more message. So here we are, Kinamo a hosting and development company, participating to the Valentine’s message.
Enough excuses already for our cheesy Valentine’s communication. 😉
We made love cards to share with your special someone, in case you were still looking for a nice card. Or if you forgot a special something for Valentine, we got you covered. Did you know our baseline is, Kinamo Your Uptime Partner? Well, with a little twist, we got you covered, even for Valentine. 😉

Having a reliable service offer does not come without investments and permanent monitoring, follow up and improvement of the infrastructure.

Read MoreTEDxFlanders, powered by Kinamo
A couple of months ago TEDxFlanders reached out to us to see if we could help them to create a new website and assist them with their communication on social media.
Besides announcing their main event ‘Now’ they are also celebrating a unique milestone with their 10th anniversary.
We’re proud to share the website that is a result of the collaboration between TEDxFlanders and Kinamo. The focus of the website is to announce upcoming events and be a hub for the TEDxFlanders Ideas worth spreading.
The graphical elements on the site are all inspired by ‘the heart of the X’ or the beating heart of TEDxFlanders, where people and ideas converge and where the TEDx spark is most tangible.
About TEDxFlanders
TEDxFlanders is an independently organised TED event. Founded in 2009 as the first TEDx event in Belgium, we have been sharing “ideas worth spreading” ever since.
On the 3rd of April TEDxFlanders is organising their main event around the theme NOW.
“NOW” is a call to understand the present moment in all its complexity.
For TEDxFlanders the theme “NOW” is especially relevant as it is an opportunity to reflect on the world we are living in today. We look back at the past, our history and where we came from. Then we look forward to the future and reflect on what we want to do. However, it takes courage to be present in the here and “NOW”.
The “NOW” event will take you on a journey with eight extraordinary speakers and two show-stopping acts from Belgium and around the world. The TEDxFlanders’ speakers are here to inspire you with their stories.
