Fusion 360 cloud credits price5/21/2023 ![]() Not quicker, but certainly more efficiently (in terms of availability of resources) than doing everything locally. Your local workstation can keep ticking over nicely, allowing you to carry out all those other tasks you need to do on a daily basis, while the cloud handles all the heavy grunt work, delivering back your results when they’re done. This is the sweet spot for cloud-computed simulation: You essentially have your own data centre facility but without the overheads. The simulation will lock it up for hours on end, meaning you can’t get anything else done while the box under your desk chunks away at those numbers. ![]() ![]() If you want to engage in more complex and iterative forms of simulation - whether it’s non-linear problems, optimisation or anything else - your local workstation probably isn’t the best place to do it. That may not be the case for much longer. ![]() To make the most of simulation’s potential it needs to be used heavily and iteratively without worrying about how much you’re using it. This is where cloud-based simulation technologies have the potential to lower the barrier to entry. But for smaller organisations, the use of local hardware is an option (and it’s certainly cheaper than it ever has been), but the licensing of simulation products from traditional vendors to run across serious computation hardware is charged by the core or by the CPU hour - and that’s certainly not cheap. ![]()
