When an aging Xsan infrastructure presented productivity and performance challenges for a major New England media organization, they turned to 1303 Systems to help find a solution. The News Organization's major goals were to scale their infrastructure to support high-resolution formats and to create content for multi-platform consumption. In short, they needed a storage solution to address current demands while providing a path for future growth. Quantum’s system integrator partner, 1303 Systems, recommended and delivered a StorNext Pro 4K solution to simplify the media company’s Xsan migration, address productivity concerns and delivery the required scalability. As in most media workflows, the storage infrastructure must be integrated with a variety of workflow applications. 1303 appreciated the track record of Quantum in integrating and validating performance with both asset management and editorial systems. More importantly, the file system’s existing integration with Xsan reduced the concerns for data migration and reduced challenges in transitioning from Xsan controllers to StorNext metadata controllers. We knew it would work”, said Chris Collum, President of 1303 Systems. "Quantum's products and solutions are rock solid and stable." For more information, check out (LINK)
