Our cloud renderfarm
Hello! Konstantin here. Now we have our own totally-opensource-based cloud renderfarm, controlled by CGRU/Afanasy. Although it is based on bare-metal servers, it is perfectly scalable to handle our growing calculation demands. Thanks to Docker container technology, starting new node takes just seconds. Also, anytime we can shrink it for the idle periods, to avoid huge costs. I have learned a lot while I was setting this up.
Animation exercise
Hello! Anastasia online! I have made this animation to practice my skills. I hope to bring more frame-by-frame animation into future episodes of Morevna (^▽^)
