Case Study: Framestore achieves fast, reliable cloud rendering connectivity with Megaport

Framestore scales cloud rendering to 100 Gbps with Megaport

Framestore, an Oscar award-winning creative studio, faced significant challenges with its initial cloud connectivity solution for visual effects rendering. Their reliance on unreliable public internet VPN tunnels was slow, required constant IT oversight, and struggled to handle the massive data transfers needed between their on-premises storage and cloud compute resources. They needed a flexible, high-bandwidth, low-latency solution that could scale with their variable project demands without the cost of long-term contracts.

By implementing Megaport's Software Defined Network, Framestore gained on-demand, pay-as-you-go private connectivity to major cloud providers like Google Cloud, AWS, and Microsoft Azure. The solution provided the high performance and reliability required for rendering, significantly reduced connectivity costs, and gave Framestore the agility to scale bandwidth instantly. With Megaport, the company achieved a vendor-agnostic model, enabling global teams to choose the best cloud technology for each project.
