Cloud Solve vs Local Solve

You can save computing power on your local computer by launching jobs on the cloud. To run jobs on the cloud, you need a current Autodesk® Account, an Autodesk ID and password, and Flex tokens

There are different kinds of jobs that you can send to the cloud:

• Mesh jobs
• Analysis jobs
• Auto-mesh analysis jobs

Mesh or Analysis jobs

Select where you would like these jobs performed in the Simulation Compute Manager. When you first launch Synergy, the jobs default to local solve.

When you run jobs on the cloud, if you lose your internet connection, analyses already scheduled will not be affected, and can be downloaded when your internet connection is restored.

Local solve is a good option if you need results immediately, and do not have immediate access to the internet.

Auto-mesh analysis

An auto-mesh analysis runs both the mesh and the analysis in the same location. This location is based on where you specified the analysis to be run.
