A render farm is a network of CPUs to provide fast rendering services to its users by distributing the workload.
How Render Farms Work
How they then help reduce this render time is, by dividing the rendering tasks and splitting them among different machines(nodes) allowing a portion of each task to be processed simultaneously on every node.
Types of Render Farms
In-House Render Farms
Instead, as the very biggest studios — e.g., Disney, Pixar, etc., — have their own farms just for in-house rendering.
Cloud Render Farms
For rendering projects, this time can be rented as computing power from cloud-based services.
Benefits of Render Farms
Efficient: Distributing workload over many machines for quicker renders
High-Resolution and Fast Turnaround: render at higher resolutions by distributing across a farm with a faster turnaround time than if you rendered on a single machine
