Autodesk Forge - Uber of CAD

इमेज
I love Uber. The full reasons why I would be a loyal customer of Uber are mentioned here . It's a lengthy write-up (you have been warned!), but you get the gist of how grateful I am for Uber. The world is shifting towards this Uber model quite fast. Choose it, rent it, use it, and pay only for the actual time you use it. What an idea! You don't have to own things, objects, or services that will be used for just a fraction of time and will sit duck otherwise. Autodesk was one of the first engineering software companies that realized the power of this rent-and-leave model. They have come up with their own platform - Autodesk Forge which exactly works like an Uber. Well, I am oversimplifying, but stay with me. Autodesk Forge is a cloud service that contains almost all Autodesk CAD applications - AutoCAD, Inventor, and Revit running on the servers. As a user, if you want something as simple as changing logos in the DWG files, you just call a few APIs and get it done in the cloud.
