Infrastructure that keeps up with your deadlines

Infrastructure that keeps up with your deadlines

GPU time slicing for artist density

Share H100 and A100 nodes across 8–16 concurrent artists without contention. Orion automates native GPU operators for time slicing — every seat gets consistent performance, no queuing, no waiting. No GRID licensing required: Helios containerized workstations stream via WebRTC and NVIDIA's container toolkit, not vGPU.

🖥️

Terra App Store

Once artists start using the Terra App Store, Orion stops being infrastructure. It becomes the creative toolchain. One-click launch for any application via Helm charts. Containerized workstations ready in under 60 seconds, anywhere in the world.

🌐

24/7 global collaboration

Teams in Los Angeles, London, and Singapore all render against the same cluster. Work stays close to where your team is, with no manual data wrangling and no cross-region lag.

📊

Cost visibility on every render

Track GPU spend by project, department, or show. Automatic cost attribution means you know exactly where budget is going before invoices arrive.

VFX workflows on Orion

Feature film rendering

High-frame-rate render pipelines on GPU-dense on-prem clusters with burst-to-cloud for peak deadline crunch. Provision a 120-seat render farm in minutes, not days.

Compositing & VFX

GPU time slicing lets multiple compositors share H100 nodes simultaneously. No queue. No dedicated hardware requests.

Containerized workstations

Full-featured artist workstations delivered via Helios in under 60 seconds. Same environment, same GPU performance — whether the artist is in LA, London, or remote. No client software, no VPN.

Zero disruption to your existing pipeline

Orion connects to whatever your studio already runs — Qumulo, Weka, Vast, or EFS. Standard CSI driver. No switching costs, no reconfigurations, no manual intervention required.

Hybrid cloud bursting

Run on-prem during steady state. Burst automatically to AWS EC2 GPU instances during award season crunch. Same orchestration layer, same job scripts, no manual handoff.

AI-assisted production

Run AI upscaling, denoising, and generative VFX workloads alongside traditional render jobs on the same cluster. GPU time slicing keeps every workload moving without dedicated hardware per pipeline.

Stop rendering tickets. Start rendering results.

R3D Studios doubled artist capacity on the same hardware and cut cloud spend ~40%. Ready to see what Orion does for your studio?
