AWS Deadline Cloud introduces new cost-saving compute option

AWS Deadline Cloud is a fully managed service that simplifies render management for teams creating computer-generated graphics and visual effects for films, television, broadcasting, web content, and design. Today, we’re excited to announce a new wait and save feature for Deadline Cloud service-managed fleets that can reduce rendering costs with prices starting as low as $0.006 per vCPU-hour.

This new feature is ideal for non time-sensitive rendering workloads with flexible completion times. Submitting jobs using this wait and save approach allows you to achieve significant cost savings so you can do more creative iteration and exploration on your next project. This feature complements existing AWS Deadline Cloud compute options in its service-managed fleets, giving you more flexibility to optimize your resource utilization across different priorities and budgets.

AWS Deadline Cloud wait and save is available in all AWS Regions where AWS Deadline Cloud is offered. To learn more about this new cost-saving feature and how it can help optimize your rendering workloads, visit the AWS Deadline Cloud product page or review the AWS Deadline Cloud documentation.
