So does this mean that, for instance with the Blender plugin, we point the plugin to an Amazon G2 IP to use one?

Yes - since the Blender plug-in is IP based, it could work.

Without much effort, you can also run Blender (or any other Windows/Linux) app on the OTOY G2 cloud server directly, and eventually plug-ins included. For this launch, we've re already re-factored Octane SA to boot up automatically inside the AMIs without an individual license - it is usage based. This is something we will do for plug-ins next. With Autodesk applications working inside the Octane AMI, it is technically possible to get usage based plug-ins for Max, Maya, Revit and Inventor up and running.

For users who are not AWS devs, we are setting up the Octane Cloud service (which is built on the same AMIs in the marketplace). It includes fully licensed version of Windows and a turn key service for remote workstation based around the Octane Render pipeline.

Thanks Goldorak! :) Sounds like fun. I'm assuming that eventually you will be able to add more GPU's to the mix?

Yes - we're starting with one GPU per instance today, but the whole point of Octane Render Cloud Edition is to use as many GPUs as you want when they are available. The work we did earlier this year which can connect hundreds of GPUs for a single render will be put to use for this.

Is it possible to render on multiple nodes simultaneously at the moment, or is that coming soon? If it is, I think I might be spinning up 10 or so instances today for a test...

Also, I've been doing some research, and it looks like the G2 nodes are about 4/5 of the speed of a GEForce 770 - is that about accurate?

Very excited by this.

I might be wrong but I believe they are using k10 inside =)
