I'll spend some more time on it, but right now it looks like another platform I need to learn, which I don't have time for. What I want is a service that takes this URL and returns a resized JPG: http://SimpleImageService.com/resize ?account=DenisM &source=http://s3.amazonaws.com/DenisMsPictures/Image1.TIFF &size=400x400 That's it. I'll drop this into my app and forget about it. Set the prices at your AWS cost + 25%, and send me the bill at the end of each month.

When I was working at Technicolor/Medinavi (after they acquired most of the chumby employees), I wrote basically this exact service (massively parallel with goroutines and with filesystem-based caching, and they were running it on an AWS instance) in about 100 lines of Go code using ImageMagick through CGO (because ImageMagick has a lot more image operation and resample filter options than the built-in go image/draw package). Sadly, I obviously can't just share the code because I don't own the copyright.

That's exactly what Stupeflix Tasks will do in a few weeks, along with video thumbnails strips, thumbnailing of videos at any point in time, video uploads, audio waveform, text to speech, video reverse etc. The beta doc is at https://stupeflix-tasks-api.readthedocs.org/en/latest/versions/index.html https://stupeflix-tasks-api.readthedocs.org/en/latest/versio... , feel free to give me some feedback on it ! And if you want to do way more than just transcode, but create completely your video from images / music / videos , you can use the video rendering service at http://developer.stupeflix.com/ http://developer.stupeflix.com/ . It will migrated to the Tasks api too. (Disclaimer : I am the CTO )

Well I need a side project at the moment :) I'll try and put something together and drop you a message.

Cloudinary does that. We used it for a bit but ultimately decided to roll our own. Their service worked great though. We've tried a bunch of options since hosting on Heroku makes large scale image processing a chore. Cloudinary was best of the bunch.
