Centralized scalable resource architecture and system

A centralized resource system (10) comprises a plurality of compute resource units (14), a plurality of visualization resource units (16), and a switching fabric (34) coupling the plurality of visualization resource units (16) to the plurality of compute resource units (14). The switching fabric (34) is operable to couple select one or more visualization resource units (16) to select one or more compute resource units (14) for generating at least one graphical image. A plurality of display devices (18) is coupled to the one or more select visualization resource units (16) operable to display the at least one graphical image.
