Broadcast

Spectra’s solutions address the challenges of today’s broadcast from content storage to content “lifecycle” management, to multi-cloud integration for collaboration and business continuity

Driven by today’s market demand for greater efficiency and agility, coupled with modern technologies, broadcasters are shifting to all–digital workflows; and a robust storage strategy is key to empowering efficient media workflows. Unifying multi-tier storage, on-premises and cloud, proper tiering and lifecycle management with the many applications that drive modern collaborative content creation — from ingest, logging and asset management to editing, and ultimately archiving – makes ideal sense. In this new model, storage is much more than a data repository; it is the very heart of the workflow.

Benefits of Spectra Logic’s solutions:

  • Optimize content storage through insight, intelligent lifecycle management and tiering
  • Maximize content value via seamless integration with the leading digital media applications
  • Form a local or globally accessible content storage repository
  • Manage vital media assets seamlessly between on-premises and cloud solutions
  • Focus on program innovation and digital transformation rather than infrastructure management
  • Provide a wide range of disaster recovery and business continuity choices
  • Expand storage capacity seamlessly to accommodate increases in image resolution, higher frame rates, and multi-camera sources.
  • Store media assets as self-describing objects
  • Retrieve media assets fully or partially, saving operational time
  • Increase efficiency and boost productivity

"When we set out on our search to find a storage solution capable of preserving Imperial War Museums’ substantial digital archive, there were specific criteria on which we were not willing to compromise. Spectra met all of our requirements and then some, and now continues to deliver with StorCycle’s storage lifecycle management capabilities."

– Ian Crawford, Chief Information Officer, Imperial War Museums

"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

"The new library has just shy of 14,000 slots for tapes. We were able to easily move all 70 petabytes of existing data into the new system and have grown to 104 petabytes in size and have plenty of room for at least a year or two before we have to start thinking about expanding."

– HPC Linux Systems Engineer, OLCF

"We have to store a lot of data for long periods of time. A single microscope can capture 10TB of data in as little as a few hours, and a published breakthrough on cancer research can take anywhere from a few years to a couple of decades. The BlackPearl and tape solution from Spectra provides a scalable and cost-effective way to store multiple data workflows with varying retention requirements."

– Jeffrey McDonald, director of IT, Hormel Institute at University of Minnesota
