Leading European Rendering Farm SquidNet Partners with Edge Data Solutions, Inc. Software to Provide Faster 3D Rendering to Farms Worldwide


Users of SquidNet’s render farm workflow management system can leverage EDSI’s GPU-based, high-performance computing platform

ATLANTA, June 15, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Edge Data Solutions, Inc. (OTC:EDGS) ("EDSI" or the "Company") a leading-edge datacenter and cloud infrastructure company, is integrating SquidNet Software to enable 3D and video render farms to accelerate rendering jobs up to 20X faster using EDSI’s Edge Performance Platform.

SquidNet advanced workflow management software allows render farm operators to break large rendering jobs into manageable tasks and distribute those tasks to local or remote computers that have available resources. EDSI is now bridging in SquidNet customers into EDSI’s Edge Performance Platform, a U.S.-based network of high-performance edge datacenters built with NVIDIA’s fastest commercially-available graphics processing units (GPUs).

“SquidNet has validated our high-performance rendering is outperforming their expectations, and at a much lower cost than our competitors. SquidNet has confirmed they will be sending more clients work as a result of our testing,” said Delray Wannemacher, CEO of EDSI. “I am proud of our team that has built a next generation rendering farm that currently out-performs AWS or Azure datacenters at a lower price point. We have truly just begun penetrating the market with our Edge Performance Platform and our next generation Edge datacenters.

SquidNet is used to manage rendering jobs in the AI, deep machine learning, gaming, image Processing, and 3D visual effects (VFX) industries. The company’s software enables animation studios, hobbyists, educational institutions, and render farms to process jobs on both physical and virtual machines.

“Most render farms that use SquidNet operate on a mix of local and cloud servers, giving them the flexibility to balance jobs and handle surges in rendering demand,” said Ralph Alvarez, Chief Technology Architect at SquidNet. “SquidNet’s new bridge to the Edge Performance Platform will give our customers another economical and powerful resource to finish jobs faster for their users and seamlessly handle high-priority or overflow jobs.”
