In Conversation with Object Matrix
In this IABM TV interview, Jonathan Morgan (CEO, Object Matrix) discusses the most important storage considerations & what’s new with MatrixStore.
BaM™ Product Highlight: Object Matrix
The broadcast industry has found itself in a new landscape, where all content is desirable on all platforms, and at all times. This means that not only are broadcasters finding themselves with thousands of hours of content but thousands of hours of content that needs to be available at any given time.

By 2020 it is estimated that there will be 40 Zetabytes of data around the world which equates to approximately 5.5 petabytes per person per year so how will we see storage adapting over the coming years and how can this amount of data be effectively stored for easy access.
Fewer Islands of Storage and More Slippers!
Whenever we visit new prospects we see the same problems time and time again. Whether they be banks, broadcasters, post-production facilities or telecoms companies, they face similar technical challenges when ingesting, curating, protecting and sharing video assets.
