SPIN VFX | Media | 350 | $10M | Canada | Beanfield Metroconnect | Beanfield Cloud Connect | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2019 |
In 2019, SPIN VFX implemented Beanfield Cloud Connect under the Application Hosting and Computing Services category to enable a burstable cloud rendering capability for production workloads. Beanfield Cloud Connect was used to extend private network connectivity into AWS Direct Connect and to provision a cloud bursting path for rendering jobs.
The deployment centered on a burstable cloud rendering architecture that supported remote mount rendering and dynamic provisioning of compute. During a 60 day proof of concept the environment moved over 330TB of data and deployed hundreds of EC2 instances to absorb peak rendering demand, and the implementation configuration included automated instance provisioning and remote filesystem mounting to support render pipelines.
Integrations were explicit, Beanfield Cloud Connect operated alongside AWS Direct Connect for private connectivity, and Curious Orbit served as the integration partner orchestrating the deployment. The Canada based VFX project addressed on premises rendering capacity limits and scoped connectivity, storage and compute as part of production render workflows.
Governance and rollout were executed through a 60 day POC that defined latency and bandwidth thresholds for remote mount rendering and established operational criteria for bursting to cloud compute. The POC results, including the moved data volumes and EC2 deployments, informed operational handoffs for production rendering and set network and threshold policies for future cloud bursting activity.

SPIN VFX | Media | 350 | $10M | Canada | Beanfield Metroconnect | Beanfield Metroconnect Colocation Services | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2018 |
In 2018, SPIN VFX deployed Beanfield Metroconnect Colocation Services to support Application Hosting and Computing Services for high performance VFX rendering workloads. The Toronto engagement began as a Beanfield led 60 day proof of concept to validate cloud bursting into AWS over a dedicated Direct Connect link, and to confirm remote mount rendering performance for production pipelines.
The implementation concentrated on burst rendering workflows, using Beanfield Metroconnect Colocation Services to establish low latency connectivity and data movement to AWS. Functional validation focused on remote mount rendering, high throughput data transfer and hybrid colocation to cloud bursting orchestration consistent with Application Hosting and Computing Services use cases.
Integrations during the proof of concept included AWS over Direct Connect and an inferred on premises SAN integration to present storage to render nodes across the colocation and cloud boundary. The system integrator Curious Orbit supported the proof of concept, assisting with configuration, testing and operational validation activities alongside Beanfield.
Governance and rollout were conducted through the defined 60 day POC in Toronto, with testing scoped to operational validation rather than immediate enterprise wide cutover. Outcomes explicitly documented included the movement of hundreds of terabytes and improved scalability and cloud bursting workflows for media production, demonstrating a hybrid colocation and cloud connect approach for VFX rendering.
