BROADCAST nPVR STREAMS RECORDING JITP

SCALITY RING PROVIDES: • High Bandwidth: 56 GB/s per rack, supporting an unlimited number of racks • Unlimited Scalability, supporting billions of files, allowing content owners and distributors to manage large catalogs of titles encoded in many formats • Class-Leading TCO, through the use of inexpensive hardware and elastic storage. Users only pay for the storage they actually consume. Scality’s advanced, cost-efficient data protection typically requires only 50% of the storage hardware required by competing systems. • Easy Integration, enabling applications to run without modification thanks to Scality’s support for common and file access protocols and industry standards such as OpenStack • Peace of Mind, as valuable media files are always protected and enjoy unprecedented availability

KEY APPLICATIONS OF THE SCALITY RING INCLUDE: LIBRARY ARCHIVE PRESERVATION: Scality’s petabyte-scale solution manages archives of unlimited size. It enables cost-effective migration to the Cloud, using standard file and Web (HTTP/REST) interfaces. Scality provides an integrated view of a digital catalog across locations, systems and formats. The RING’s erasure coding ensures cost effective data protection for valuable media. PRODUCTION AND POST-PRODUCTION: Scality’s unified storage integrates production workflows, accelerates production time and reduces costs by providing a common data pool across the production lifecycle. Scality’s storage infrastructure enables a significant cost reduction through the use of commodity hardware and open standards. DISTRIBUTION: Scality reduces the administrative overhead and cost of storage infrastructure for avails and digital distribution. Storage can be added at any time without needing to modify workflows or schedule service downtime. Digital avails systems can access a global, unified storage pool providing high availability and automatic replication across sites. Scality’s petabyte-scale solution deals easily with the growth of on-demand catalogs and enables advanced VOD services, reducing the cost per stream for VOD, nPVR and CDNs. nPVR: Scality enables advanced nPVR services, providing content to users where and when they want it and reducing set top data loss. Thanks to Scality’s highly parallel design, an nPVR system can support millions of users. Scality natively supports POSIX and HTTP interfaces to recording equipment and NFS, CIFS and POSIX interfaces for storing files in Pivot formats. RING scales system bandwidth and capacity as content and users increase, and physical storage space is optimized automatically. Using the RING, operators can store large nPVR catalogs containing multiple copies at the lowest possible cost.
