Visual Effects Workstations on AWS
This Quick Start deploys a highly available environment for Microsoft Windows-based, visual effects (VFX) workstations on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud.
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 deploy the environment on AWS in about 30 minutes. You can customize the templates to meet your specific requirements. After you deploy the Quick Start, you can install your preferred software tools.
