Cloud based repository installation

[Dan_Barker1]

Hi,

We have been using deadline for some time now and have the remote repository in our studio installed as per the guides. We have a hybrid approach with some nodes on site, other nodes distributed on other sites, and IAAS nodes in the cloud we boot up when needed.

With plans for further distribution internationally, we would like to install a new repo and database in the cloud rather than our physical hardware on site.

Is there a contact at AWS that could talk us through the setup and costs?

We also use DigialOcean for a cloud based perforce server. Could a repository be deployed on Digital ocean?

Not being super techy, a simple and maintainable solution would be great to test alongside our live repo.

Thanks in advance.

@Dan_Barker1 I believe we can get you in touch with someone from AWS who can help you with the infrastructure setup and cost information. Could you be able to open a ticket thread with Thinkbox Support Team for this and we can take this over on the thread.

Here is a list of System Requirement for Deadline and the farm consideration you would need to to setup a farm:

Thankyou, much appreciated
Yes, we’ll look into these and prepare a bit more detail ahead of the post.
