Case Study: Animal Logic achieves major animation performance gains with Schneider Electric prefabricated data centers

How Animal Logic grew their movie-making power with a prefabricated data center

Animal Logic, a leading Australian digital production studio with more than 25 years of VFX and animation experience, faced cyclical, high-density compute demands driven by large render workloads and tight production schedules. To meet the need for rapid deployment, high power density, and customizable engineering, Animal Logic selected Schneider Electric’s prefabricated data center solution.

Schneider Electric delivered a custom prefab data center in under four and a half months, installing a 30 kW per rack infrastructure that powers a render farm running an average of 1.25 petaflops per second for common workloads and deploying StruxureOn DCIM for 24/7 monitoring. The result: a major boost in animation productivity, removal of creative bottlenecks, reduced latency and utility costs, and a more reliable on‑premise system — outcomes Animal Logic credits to Schneider Electric’s solution and partnership.
