Spectra’s StorCycle storage lifecycle management software is an easy, affordable and efficient solution built specifically to identify inactive data that consumes expensive primary storage capacity. It then migrates identified data to a more affordable protected tier of storage called the Perpetual Storage Tier, while leaving the data fully accessible to users. The Perpetual Storage Tier holds inactive data, which is tracked, protected and is available at a future time if needed, or even deleted when the data has reached the end of its lifecycle. This tier is also used for data distribution, backup, archive, disaster recovery and more.

More than 80 percent of data is being stored on the wrong tier of storage, costing organizations millions of dollars a year. IT professionals intuitively know they are not storing their data efficiently because they have never been given the correct tools to do so… until now. Spectra Logic’s StorCycle software is the answer to deploying a modern storage lifecycle management workflow. StorCycle reduces the overall cost of storing data by up to 70 percent.

Paragon has the flexibility to be used as a standalone archive solution as well as being capable of being extended for wider business requirements by combining it with other TMD media services platforms.

The consumption of content continues to accelerate on an upwards path and the need to efficiently acquire, manage and deliver across the entire content supply chain becomes ever more compelling.

To achieve optimum performance we need to consider following a digital transformation strategy that builds on the four pillars of the content supply chain:

• Content – in all its forms, digital and physical, video, audio, graphics, captions, subtitles, scripts and documents, as well as all the associated and additional metadata


• Workflow – Nothing happens to content without direction, as simple or complex as needed. Business processes, logic and decisions must be performed to create cohesive and efficient workflows, taking into account both manual, and the increasing amount of automated tasks


• Resources – Workflows don’t happen without somebody or something managing and orchestrating them, whether it be a person and/or technology


• Analytics – How do you know how well your operation is running and that you’ve implemented efficient working practices? Analytics. Being able to measure and manage the business across the above 3 pillars enables an organisation to automate elasticity in resource utilisation, to understand the metrics of its operation, how efficient they are and ultimately how the bottom line is affected by them.

Undertaking a strategy that creates tight integration of all 4 pillars will deliver significant benefits to the organisation. Maximising the benefit requires the implementation of an agile and flexible content supply chain solution, so implementing a business solution, such as Mediaflex-UMS (Unified Media Services), that embraces all 4 pillars will ultimately lead to a significantly more efficient operation.

From its concept, Mediaflex-UMS has been designed to integrate these 4 pillars and place clients in control of their content, metadata and the business processes across their content supply chains. Equally as important, it was designed to place our customers in control of the Mediaflex-UMS platform.

So often organisations find out the hard way that the implementation of a new system requires them to go back to the vendor and/or rely on technology experts to modify the code to cater for new business processes, or modify existing ones, as the business changes. This often leads to the question “Do I build or buy?”.

What is FPS

FPS software presents an interface to the user to launch their applications, the key objective is to make it easier for the user to create, production staff to manage and companies to minimise risk. The direct result is less stress and improved output.

The interface can be modified to suite the job at hand and focuses on managing the content and sharing this content between multiple teams on the local network, remotely or in the Cloud.

FPS is production asset management software that dynamically tracks workflow components from ingest to archive. With a simply but clever interface to tag and search we do not get in the way of the editor or graphics person creation, their work comes to them.

FOCAL POINT SERVER operates a ‘traffic light’ system that allows seamless collaboration. As the number users grows so does the importance of FPS.

With nearly a decade of developing AI and computer vision tools for the world’s number one interactive video platform at WIREWAX, and with another two decades of experience in the video and broadcast space, the team identified ways to leverage the platform’s award-winning image processing technologies in the big media sector too.

Lightning fast; face and object recognition, segmentation, fingerprinting, speech recognition and many other unparalleled tools available in the suite has changed the game for the broadcast and media industry.

Being able to scan entire archives of video assets and create a powerful, digital understanding of videos, programmes and movies with this core technology has enabled large TV and movie studios to leverage data and digital tools and services like never before.

We’ve not met a media business on the planet that doesn’t have a digitised asset problem. Lack of metadata, no understanding of content, zero monetisation capabilities and gigantic and disorganized archives. Not to mention expensive asset management, overpriced syndication and VOD preparation, and notoriously slow and extortionate manual services.

For companies that create or manage a large volume of digital media CatDV helps teams organize, communicate and collaborate effectively. Its simple, yet powerful tools support some of the world’s most sophisticated media workflows and provide the flexibility to work your way. 

CatDV is a media asset management system that consists of a suite of products, providing a scalable, cross-platform, media asset database that can handle a very wide range of file types.

CatDV creates a catalog of all kinds of media assets, not just video (although enhanced support for video content is included) but also still images, audio files, PDFs, etc. You can log metadata against your media making is searchable using key words, not just clip titles. It also provides analysis and transcoding of media files with advanced logging tools, sequence editing and integration with non-linear editing applications.

Unlike many Media Asset Management products CatDV can start small and grow seamlessly. With its scalable and modular architecture the CatDV product family has an offering that’s right for every user. Many of our customers with tens or hundreds of networked CatDV users started with small systems that grew alongside budgets and new requirements.
