Running Headless Chrome on Server-Side Linux with GPU Support

Many cloud environments offer hardware compute instances with GPU support. It is challenging to figure out how to run a headless Chrome instance on this hardware and properly activate the GPU.

For Linux instances with NVIDIA GPUs, there is now public documentation on how to achieve this:

Using headless Chrome on server side environments such as Google Cloud Platform or Google Colab for true client side browser emulation with NVIDIA server GPUs for Web AI or graphical workloads using WebGL or WebGPU.

See also the high-level blog post and docs for using GPUs in a Google Colab environment.
