I been having fun lately messing around with a new toy.
This my baby:
She's being used for a new project. I hooked up with an artist and we're doing a couple of things.
1. For profit realistic architectural renderings.
2. For play short anime episodes.
We're working on 1 for now, 2 will come after we get some stable income going. He works at an architectural firm as a squire, never got the degree so
has probably capped out. Been at it for 10 years, longer as a 3D artist, and he knows what our clients are after.
So the black box at the top that's for a VPN. We tested out remote rendering without it works fine, except it's an open service anyone can sniff the
open port and figure out what's going on. I got it rockin a linux distro, firewalled, and the only open ports (ssh and vpn services) require keys to
get in.
Guy kicks back with a brew after work, taps into the VPN, and starts creating stuff. It's pretty cool!
Just wanted to share.
We have 248 xeon cores right now, something like 650Ghz, it'll grow to 320 cores next week.
