A Weka Case Study
Parliament VFX, a visual effects studio operating entirely in the cloud, faced a significant challenge with the high cost of achieving the performance required for their data-intensive VFX rendering. The available cloud storage options presented a catch-22: pay astronomical fees for the necessary performance and risk profitability, or save money but compromise on quality. Neither option was acceptable for their work on high-profile projects.
By implementing the NeuralMesh solution from Weka on Google Cloud, Parliament VFX eliminated the trade-off between performance and cost. Weka's software delivered the high-speed data storage performance they required while also reducing their cloud storage costs by 75%. This solution enabled Parliament to effectively spin up project-specific studios and manage huge amounts of data, making their entire cloud-based business model viable.
