Autodesk Cloud
Autodesk Cloud capabilities help you increase mobility, improve collaboration, and optimize your designs—advancing the way you work. It's a collection of more than a dozen web-based capabilities, products and services that enable customers to extend their desktops with greater mobility, new viewing and sharing capabilities, and more computing power, helping them better design, visualize and simulate their ideas.
Autodesk Subscription now provides 3 GB of online storage for each seat of software on Subscription for greater access to design and engineering documents, anywhere, anytime. Heavy processing taks like rendering and Inventor optimisation have a limit of 100 "cloud units" per license per year. How much you have used you can see through your account once logged in.
