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.
theres this for now

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.
