The need for high-performance hardware is a reality in game development and virtual production, especially for tasks like builds and rendering, and with the fact that more and more production is moving towards Unreal Engine, which is very demanding on HW. However, carrying powerful workstations around is impractical for digital nomads or those working from multiple locations. Cloud-based computing and virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solutions offer a way out. By leveraging cloud resources, creatives can access high-performance computing power on demand, freeing them from the limitations of their physical hardware.
