Autodesk & Amazon: Reshaping Design and Engineering in the Cloud
At Autodesk, we’ve always recognized the power of the cloud—its incredible connectivity, massive computing capabilities, and cost efficiency. Simply put, the cloud has transformed everything. It’s reshaping industries, revolutionizing how businesses operate, and redefining the way the world is designed and built.
Collaborating with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Autodesk has been a pioneer in embracing the cloud as its growth has exploded over the years. Six years ago, we launched AutoCAD 360, a web and mobile-based CAD application that allows millions of users to create, edit, and view over 600,000 unique drawings each month.
Our entry-level cloud-based 3D modeling platform, Tinkercad, has become a favorite among users of all ages, with more than 25 million designs created so far. On average, over 50,000 new designs are added daily. Meanwhile, our A360 cloud collaboration platform sees more than 1.5 million files uploaded every single day.
While it's clear that Autodesk has led the design and engineering software industry into the cloud, we've never done it alone. AWS has been a key partner, helping us scale our applications to meet growing customer demands.
For years, Autodesk has relied on the AWS Cloud to power some of the most demanding applications, ensuring security, high availability, and instant access from anywhere in the world. With AWS, customers can rent computing resources as needed—scaling up or down based on their needs. Whether it's a simple web server for testing or a supercomputer-like system for complex simulations, the flexibility is unmatched.
And the cost savings are significant. The price of even the most challenging cloud tasks is orders of magnitude less than maintaining an equivalent on-premise data center. This helps businesses save money, invest more in innovation, and grow faster.
For many industries, this affordable access to powerful computing is changing the game entirely. Take Airbus, for example. They partnered with Autodesk to design and produce the world’s largest 3D-printed airplane cabin component—the “bionic partition.†Using generative design powered by the AWS Cloud, custom algorithms were used to create a structure inspired by cellular biology and bone growth, resulting in a stronger and lighter component than traditional methods could achieve.
Another great example is JE Dunn Construction, which uses Autodesk BIM360 on the AWS Cloud to enable seamless collaboration across large-scale commercial projects. Their ability to work in real time with teams around the world has significantly improved project outcomes.
“AWS has been instrumental in driving the future of Autodesk,†said Amar Hanspal, SVP of Products at Autodesk. “From the powerful computing behind every design and rendering to the infrastructure supporting our next-generation tools, AWS has been a key enabler. We’re excited about the future and the potential of our Forge platform to drive even more innovation.â€
Autodesk Forge is a suite of cloud services that connects design, engineering, visualization, collaboration, production, and operations. Developers of all sizes are using Forge to build smart, cloud-powered solutions that empower the people shaping the world.
