Deploy an AWS Cloud environment for VFX workstations with new Quick Start

Posted on: Aug 22, 2018

This Quick Start deploys a visual effects (VFX) workstation environment with AWS services and Teradici software on the AWS Cloud in about 30 minutes.

The deployment uses G3 GPU instances, which are designed for graphics-intensive workloads. Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) provides highly durable, secure, and scalable storage for VFX content. Teradici's PC-over-IP (PCoIP) technology and Teradici Cloud Access Software enable a powerful remote desktop experience, and you can set up AWS Direct Connect for low-latency network connections back to your studio.

This reference architecture is automated by AWS CloudFormation templates that you can customize. After you deploy the Quick Start, you can install your preferred software tools to create and manipulate your VFX content.
