Spark Cloud Studio Calculator

Spark Cloud Studio Calculator helps media, entertainment, and design professionals make informed decisions about their computing infrastructure by comparing the costs of cloud-based solutions with traditional on-premise setups.

The app includes three purpose-built cost calculators:

WORKSTATION CALCULATOR

Compare the total cost of ownership between Spark ProStation cloud workstations and traditional on-premise workstations. Configure the number of users, usage hours, hardware specifications, and operating system to see a detailed cost breakdown. Choose from a wide range of GPU-powered configurations, from starter kits with NVIDIA T4 GPUs to high-end setups with multiple NVIDIA A10 and L40S GPUs.

SHARESYNC CALCULATOR

Evaluate cloud storage and data transfer costs across multiple providers. Compare pricing for Spark ShareSync against AWS, Google Cloud, MediaShuttle, Google Drive, and Dropbox. Adjust storage size and data egress volumes to find the most cost-effective solution for your file sharing and collaboration needs.

SMART COMPUTE CALCULATOR

Estimate the cost and time savings of using Spark SmartCompute cloud render nodes versus maintaining an on-premise render farm. Input your rendering workload, including frames to render, render time per frame, and number of nodes needed. Compare a range of cloud compute configurations with your existing hardware costs and maintenance expenses.
