AWS provides the most comprehensive set of cloud capabilities for producing content
Faced with unprecedented audience demand for new content and growing adoption of remote production, studios use AWS to quickly set up remote artist workstations, editorial workflows, collaboration platforms, and rendering.
Set up, deploy, and scale cloud-based rendering capabilities with just a few clicks so you can keep up with the demand for content and take on new projects. With AWS Deadline Cloud, you can scale capacity to run more jobs in parallel, customize your pipeline with included tools and integrations, and improve cost planning, visibility, and control. Free your team to focus on making amazing visuals and delivering creative projects faster.
Launch video editing and graphics-intensive virtual workstations on the most extensive global footprint of any cloud provider, including AWS Regions and AWS Local Zones, and run latency-sensitive applications using compute, storage, database, and other AWS services closer to your end users. Bring on remote artists from anywhere around the globe with availability in major content creation markets, so you can hire the best talent.
Eliminate the overhead of managing physical infrastructure and minimize the administration of installing, configuring, and maintaining your creative, compute, network, and storage resources. AWS is the only cloud with 400 Gbps network connectivity, the most powerful GPU instances for graphics workloads, and the lowest cost-per-inference instances. With AWS, you can focus on creating content that delights your customers.
