AWS Deadline Cloud service-managed fleets now support configuration scripts

AWS Deadline Cloud now supports specifying a configuration script on both Linux and Windows service-managed fleets. The provided configuration script will be run with elevated privileges on each worker. AWS Deadline Cloud is a fully managed service that simplifies render management for teams creating computer-generated graphics and visual effects, for films, television and broadcasting, web content, and design.

Configuration scripts make it easy to install additional software, like plugins and dependencies, on a worker in a service-managed fleet as part of customizing the job environment. Configuration scripts can also be used to install telemetry collectors for monitoring, and tools like Docker for running containers on service-managed fleets.

Configuration scripts for service-managed fleets are available in all AWS Regions where Deadline Cloud is available.
