What Happens to my Uploaded Files?

Boost for Daz does not store any files

When you shutdown your Boost for Daz session none of your files remain on Boost for Daz. Here's how that process works. When you request a specific GPU on Boost for Daz, a virtual computer and an attached GPU is created on demand and 100% assigned to you and your specific session for the time you have it, and all its resources are dedicated just to you. (Unlike a local PC there is no overhead of Windows software or Daz Studio etc.). That virtual computer and GPU - now also running Iray Server - is not shared with anyone else. Now, when you connect to this server in Daz Studio (DS) and hit the Render button, DS creates a render package (which incl the .duf files and associated assets), and this is uploaded to Boost for Daz and stored in the cache on the virtual computer assigned to you in this session. (Note: This becomes really handy when making subsequent changes to the scene - e.g. lighting, camera angles, poses, textures, shaders etc. Subsequent renders are super fast because only the changes are uploaded and not the whole .duf file and assets). After rendering is completed and you sign-out and shutdown, that virtual computer is killed and all the files you uploaded disappear as well. Forever. The virtual computer and GPU pair is ephemeral, created just for you and when you are done - the entire stack is deleted. So no source files or even completed rendered files are stored on Boost for Daz. So do remember to download or save your completed renders to your local machine before disconnecting DS from your Boost for Daz server and then stopping your Boost for Daz session.
