That's some really cool tech.
It seems like it's Linux only. Is there windows support planned?
That would solve the problem with wanting to run code on the GPU within a Linux VM while the host is windows.

Windows support is coming in mid-April, stay tuned!

That's great! Reading the documentation it seems there is no support for multiple clients and multiple GPUs (Many-To-Many), is there anything planned on that side?

You can absolutely do that. That's actually one of the more interesting configurations: the ability to pool GPU systems.
Just go to the custom link at the bottom of the page, the link is: https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/home?region=us...
There you can select any number of clients and servers. For example: 5 clients and 1 server (many to one), or 5 clients to 5 servers (many to many).

Nice. The doc at https://bitfusionio.readme.io/docs/bitfusion-boost is a bit misleading with the possible configurations. Maybe add one configuration with multiple Boost Clients(CPU) and many Boost Servers(GPU)
