First, BBC Model B 32K RAM no floppy drive, cassette deck back then. First PC, AMD 386sx 33MHz with 1MB RAM. Day one was a harsh lesson in conventional and upper memory, learning that even with 1MB of RAM you can only access 640K unless you upgrade to 2MB

I used to work in the video production industry and built a in-house NAS for a couple of edit suites but that was many years ago. We only had to work with HD video and smaller files though. I'm in the biotech industry now, genomics, and the files are slightly bigger 800GB. We're pushing data out to cloud storage and putting the compute in the same datacentre. Our 3 workloads are CAD design, chip design and dna sequencing. We still developing the systems and there are some similarities in the way we process dna data to video editors but without the visualisation. So my suggestion is look into Azure Files Premium and the cloud compute offerings they have with GPU. I saw a link here on cloud gaming https://medium.com/microsoftazure/a-beginners-guide-to-cloud-gaming-c3e8a5915440 it might get you started but at least it's an idea for a couple of videos. FYI also swaps cost from CAPEX to OPEX and should save some of those $$$
