Digital Media Storage Platform

Spectra provides solutions by application to suit every M&E workflow
On-Premises Storage

On-Premises Storage

Spectra’s BlackPearl provides direct access to Disk, Object Storage and/or Tape from terabyte to exabyte levels. Spectra solutions are deployed as ingest storage, nearline, project parking, central repository, or hybrid systems. With tight integrations with all popular PAMs/MAMs, these solutions facilitate seamless production workflows.
Cloud/Hybrid Workflows

Cloud/Hybrid Workflows

Multi-cloud workflows are game changers. Seamlessly integrating both on-premises and cloud workflows as a single system is key. Spectra solutions address data management, disaster recovery, business continuity, and collaborative workflows. Multi-cloud, multi-system, multi-site. No IT professional should be forced into a permanent decision.
Multi-Site Collaboration

Multi-Site Collaboration

Two sites or thousands, multi-site, multi-cloud collaboration, consolidation, content sharing, or business continuity, Spectra solutions address any or all of the above needs. Spectra solutions can help with orchestration of workflows across sites and clouds — all under one management system. 
Migration

Migration

Terrified of data security and want to move from a legacy proprietary system to a modern platform, or between Disk, Tape, and Cloud(s), or consolidate and centralize? Spectra has the solutions and expertise to get you on a modern system or to the cloud. Let us show you how.
Archive

Archive

Spectra is a world leader in Tape and Disk archive systems (NAS or Object). We provide simple and cost-effective options for long-term data preservation — both onsite and hybrid. Tape can be a critical part of a centralized and strategic storage infrastructure.
Storage Lifecycle Management

Storage Lifecycle Management

Key to any storage system is the ability to handle unmanaged assets as easily as those indexed and managed by a MAM or PAM. Everyone has graphics, WIP, online/social content, originals, etc., in need of management. Spectra offers solutions that provide insights into unmanaged content so it can be managed automatically.
"Spectra Logic provided the University of Notre Dame with a modern solution that was scalable, cost-effective, and enabled extensive efficient workflows. We’ve had positive experiences with Spectra’s products in the past, making Spectra the obvious choice for our next initiative." - Mike Anderson, Storage Systems Administrator at Notre Dame’s main South Bend campus
"We needed a solution that could accommodate our expected annual growth and future needs. The fact that we can seamlessly replicate our data to a second BlackPearl system offsite for disaster recovery means our data is always available and adds another layer of protection." – Patrick Tsang, telecommunications engineer, Radio Television Hong Kong
"Our Spectra Logic solution has helped us create a content strategy to preserve the BFI National Archive digital collection long-term. BlackPearl integrates seamlessly into our workflow applications and allows us to easily store and quickly access our files on tape libraries. The non-proprietary format of the system and its genetic diversity gives us confidence in our system’s future roadmap." – Stephen McConnachie, Head of Data and Digital Preservation, BFI
"We appreciate the collaborative relationship and Spectra’s attentiveness to incorporating our feedback and ideas into solution enhancements. Our continuing investment into Spectra technology on behalf of our organization has proven invaluable in helping us implement the next level architectural model taking us into the future." - Eric Grau, Manager – Media Asset Management, Joyce Meyer Ministries
