NVidia Iray Server for DAZ Studio?

I am curious if this is something that will be integrated with DAZ Studio in the future. I use 3Delight and standalone. With some DAZ scripting, this works to great effect. However, I also like the quality of Iray's renders and would like a similar solution if it is possible.

Thanks!

    Well, the network render settings are there, marked as beta, last I looked. I signed up for the iray server beta, but haven't heard anything from nvidia. I expect it will expose the same interface as the big internet render farms. Whether it will be priced for mere mortals is the real question.

    if you've got 50K burning a hole in your pocket I say go for it.

    Yes, I know about the Cloud (BETA) feature but that is only for... well, Cloud. I mean with PCs with nvidia cards on my network. I have numerous machines with dual K20, K80s that I can utilize but no Iray server/standalone solution I can use.

    Don't we all wish we had 50K burning a hole somewhere? :)

    Ähh sorry, a very silly question:

    What you described does it mean I have to build up my own server farm? Spend several K$ for what?
    Everyone has to build his own server farm?

    I though the idea was to connect to a commercial server farm and, for a low fee, send a suitable (set of) file(s) to that farm for batch-rendering and get the resulting picture. Without any need to have own expensive GPU cards and to save the astronomical times, I spent up to know with my pc rendering cpu-only.
