In media and entertainment, Azure HPC Cache can speed up data access for time-critical rendering projects. VFX rendering workflows often require last-minute processing by large numbers of compute nodes. Data for these workflows are typically located in an on-premises NAS environment. Azure HPC Cache can cache that file data in the cloud to reduce latency and enhance flexibility for on-demand rendering.
