The Cloud Slicer allows you to slice and encode content within our cloud infrastructure, providing an alternative to running a slicer on a local machine. Each request to the Cloud Slicer service creates a job, which is placed in a queue until a Cloud Slicer is available to process it.

Considerations

Cost: Usage incurs an additional cost beyond the normal encoding rate.
Queue: Jobs are processed in the order they are received, but high demand may cause delays.
Feedback: Unlike local slicers, Cloud Slicers provide feedback only after processing is completed.
File Size: Cloud Slicer can only process files smaller than 90GB. Larger files must be processed on a local slicer.
