If you’ve considered using cloud services but can’t find answers to questions like, “How do I ensure that nobody, not even service provider’s staff can access my data?” “Who has the encryption keys?” “How is the data destroyed after use?” this class is for you. The focus of this class will be to understand and summarize your concerns about security of moving data to the cloud and adoption of new Autodesk, Inc., services. We will discuss potential scenarios/options that could address your concerns. No service can guarantee total security and protection, and there is no “silver bullet” addressing all potential security concerns. In the class we will try to define what you can do with Autodesk to demonstrate that Autodesk 360 cloud services are secure and ready for sensitive workloads that require a higher standard of encryption.

This class will explore how Autodesk is leveraging Amazon Web Services to power A360, product trials and more. In addition to showing how Autodesk uses AWS, we will explore how Amazon Web Services can enhance design, engineering, and media and entertainment workflows for any size company. This class will provide an overview of the concepts and best practices for moving workloads to the cloud and running them at scale in a secure, scalable and cost efficient manner.

Regardless of whether you need to work with others on a product mockup, configure a family of products or render a 3D image, adding cloud services to your Autodesk software helps you get your product to market faster and with higher initial customer satisfaction. • Compute-intensive tasks take minutes or hours instead of days. • Collaboration can be with as many people and use as many services as needed. • Multiple cloud services, e.g., Fusion 360, Configurator 360 and Render 360 enable teams to tackle multiple projects and tasks simultaneously.

The fast-growing network around unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), as well as the availability of cloud-based processing and analysis services, enables the emergence of a category of new workflows that disrupt the conventional surveying methods. By flying a UAV around a house or a building to capture aerial images, and by processing such images to produce meaningful 2D orthographic views and 3D data using Autodesk, Inc., photo-to-3D service, we have developed a complete solution that delivers the necessary reports in a fraction of the time and cost usually necessary to get such reports. Insurance adjusters are now being offered a completely new, automated solution that avoids using ladders to climb on roofs to measure or visually inspect them following a claim. Come and check out how this solution works, and how the same workflow can be applied to many other use cases and industries.

Web Applications and Cloud Services are highly distributed and loosely coupled. They have dependencies on both internal and external services, and are released on different frequencies and schedules. The distributed nature and variety of the Cloud ecosystem makes it so that teams have to think about testing differently. This presentation will cover tips and tricks to enhance your development lifecycle to release changes faster, with higher confidence; how to build a CI/CD pipeline; how to package and deploy your code; when and where to introduce testing in the process; and what testing should be done.

The Autodesk 360 cloud-computing platform is all about enabling users to access their data from everywhere, anytime. The ability to view your design in 3d from any computer or device brings a total new experience in sharing information for your friends, colleagues, and collaborators. While we will explore how to use this WEB / Cloud Service API for creating a collaboration tool, and manipulating geometry, and metadata ; we would also get a truly new 3D journey using LeapMotion and either the Oculus Rift or simply the Google Cardboard. Come to the class with your Android phone or iPhone and get a Google Cardboard back home.

This class gives you an introduction to Autodesk® 360 cloud-based services.

How does the cloud help your firm grow and reach global scale securely? In this session, we will explore how Amazon Web Services (AWS) enables you to extend your IT infrastructure into the cloud with enterprise-grade security. We will see how Autodesk products can be deployed in a secure, scalable, and global cloud environment. We will look into the details of the AWS Virtual Private Cloud, and see how it helps your organization comply with security requirements and standards.

This class presents an in-depth look at how to use Revit® MEP software with cloud tools for collaboration workflows in MEP engineering firms. We demonstrate the benefits of various cloud services , such as BIM 360™ Glue®, rendering as a service, and Autodesk® Simulation-based software. What is the big picture and how do the cloud services work together to add much more value than any one program alone? How do these cloud services fit in with Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflows and how can you use them side-by side with Revit MEP? We answer these questions and more as we teach you how to use BIM with cloud to collaborate with your extended design team. Afterwards, join us for the panel discussion MP3174 Come Fly with Us in the Cloud: BIM Panel Discussion.

Autodesk 360 cloud rendering is now available for 3ds Max 2016 software. In this demonstration you will learn the step-by-step process of sending your renders to the cloud. We will discuss best practices and scene preparation in 3ds Max software, as well as Autodesk 360 rendering settings. If you’ve been using cloud rendering in Revit software, then many of these steps in 3ds Max software should be familiar to you. This might be a great opportunity to familiarize yourself with the 3ds Max software environment. For the purely 3ds Max users, we will cover the benefits and limitations of Autodesk 360 cloud-computing platform so you have a better understanding of the cloud and how you can capitalize on its power in your workflow.

In this session, Jeff Metcalf, CIO from Layton Construction will be presenting how Layton, Forge and other Cloud Service APIs have been leveraged in order to integrate with CMiC (https://cmicglobal.com), an internal ERP system, to reduce overhead and increase visibility into Key Performance Indicators across many projects using Autodesk Cloud Services including BIM360 (HQ) and BIM360 Field. (Joint AU/Forge DevCon class).

Autodesk 360 is a cloud-based platform of services such as file storage, viewing, collaboration, rendering, and much more. In this class, you will see what services are included for any Autodesk 360 account holder, as well as what extra perks are available for Subscription customers.

The rapid evolution of design technology, software, and cloud services changes how architectural offices and companies operate, and provides great opportunities for improvements that should be used. This follow-up class to “Custom Computational Workflows for BIM Design Implementation” shows how Revit software and Dynamo can benefit from these new developments and cloud services that can provide more global, efficient, fluent, or even fully automated workflows. Current practical examples of custom workflows we use at Zaha Hadid Architects showcase how manual and cross-application design-to-BIM tasks can be implemented via intelligent parametric elements and scripted processes. As a next step, these can be translated into cloud-enabled workflows for further automation and efficiency. What methods, tools, and cloud-services are available and which skills are required to use them?

This class will discuss the benefits of the cloud for software developers and look at a concrete example of moving desktop functionality to the cloud. We will look at issues related to the architecture of software destined for the cloud. We will compare commercial cloud offerings such as Amazon Web Services™ and Windows Azure™ and will take an look a several client-side environments for consuming this data, such as AutoCAD® software , Unity 3D, Android™, Apple® iOS, and HTML5.

This class will explain a subset of capabilities that Autodesk cloud services offer to enable collaboration in civil infrastructure projects. Topics that we'll discuss include the presence of mobile devices in our daily lives, and the ways that we can use them in professional environments. Also, we'll explore the available technologies that will let multiple teams work together.

Join us for this followup panel discussion of the AU class MP3169 Get Your BIM Head Out Of The Cloud. Come have a discussion with various panelists from the industry about how the cloud services can be used in a BIM collaborative workflow.
