    AWS, Expert Thinking, & Qumulo Webinar Event

    Building a high-performance cloud studio requires more than infrastructure—it demands the right data platform and the right expertise to bring it together.

    Join AWS, Qumulo, and Expert Thinking to explore how to architect a modern “studio in the cloud.” Learn how AWS delivers scalable infrastructure, Qumulo enables a unified cloud data fabric, and Expert Thinking ensures seamless implementation and onboarding.

    Using a Flame on AWS demonstration, we’ll show how to support demanding media and AI workloads while keeping operations simple, and how to move quickly from design to production.

    Attendees will have the opportunity to continue the conversation through exclusive, invite-only demo sessions at AWS London.

    By attending this webinar, you will learn how to:
     
    • Build a scalable “studio in the cloud” using AWS infrastructure and Qumulo’s data platform
    • Simplify complex media workflows and remove common production bottlenecks
    • Watch a real-world Media & Entertainment workflow using Flame on AWS
    • Enable high-performance collaboration across distributed teams and locations
    • Accelerate time to value with expert implementation from Expert Thinking
