utility rendering service

The utility rendering service is the first prototype service for a Digital Media Grid and is intended to:
  • Demonstrate how rendering workload demands can be flexibly supplied by a utility/Grid computing style approach.

  • Demonstrate the value of the HP Labs SmartFrog technology for specifying and deploying distributed applications.

  • Investigate the role of Grid technologies in delivering media services.

As a proof of concept, HP Labs Bristol collaborated with local digital production house 422 on The Painter, a 4 minute animated short rendered using our service running in our Utility Data Center.  For more information on this collaboration, click here.<%Call PageFooter()%>
