Can I host a meshroom workflow online, in heroku?

[Muhammad-1990]

Is it possible to host in heroku and trigger a workflow?
I don't have much computational power, and I would just like some server to do the work for me and give me a downloadable output.

basically do a batch import of images and have meshroom process it.
use images to reconstruct a 3d point cloud and extract a 3d mesh or save the project and make it downloadable, after the heavy duty processing has been done.

thanks,

I suppose you could run Meshroom on heroku, but without the DepthMap node, which requires a NVIDIA GPU heroku does not provide. Alternatives are: https://github.com/alicevision/meshroom/wiki/Meshroom-in-Google-Colab-(cloud) and https://github.com/alicevision/meshroom/wiki/Meshroom-on-AWS

You could also test https://vgputestdrive.nvidia.com/accounts/register/ (NVIDIA Cloud VM with GPU), but I don´t know if it is still available.
