OpenCue on a Mac
Open-source render manager (self-hosted) · Render Farm
OpenCue (Sony Pictures Imageworks + Google, Academy Software Foundation) is an open-source render-management system for large farms — the Cuebot scheduler + PostgreSQL, RQD on each worker, and the CueGUI desktop client; a Python API (PyCue/PyOutline) drives submission. Self-host the stack (Docker/Compose available). A free alternative to Deadline/Qube!.
