— Quantum (
www.stornext.com), a scale-out storage, archive and data protection company, is further extending its line of StorNext Pro Solutions with StorNext Pro Foundation, a complete entry-level, integrated shared storage solution designed specifically for new customers or new deployments in the post, broadcast, corporate and government video sectors. Built on the proven StorNext 5 workflow storage and collaboration platform, StorNext Pro Foundation brings the capabilities of Quantum's storage solutions to a new audience of media professionals.
“The unveiling of StorNext Pro Foundation at CCW reflects the continued expansion of our StorNext Pro Solutions product family to address customers' evolving workflow needs,” says Alex Grossman, VP, media and entertainment, Quantum. “We're seeing significant interest in these StorNext 5-powered solutions, and we look forward to demonstrating how StorNext Pro Foundation meets a pressing industry demand for uncompromising performance in small and mid-sized content-creation environments.”
Ready to deploy within new or existing Fibre Channel networks, StorNext Pro Foundation gives small to mid-sized production workgroups a powerful and attractively priced solution for managing assets from ingest to delivery to archive. The underlying StorNext 5 platform ensures that the solution can adapt as the workflow evolves, enabling users to ingest more content from multiple camera sources, create more content and deliver it on time while preserving owned content for future monetization. StorNext Pro Foundation offers high performance and full Xsan compatibility, an ideal pairing for smaller workgroups looking to renew or upgrade, as well as for current StorNext users wishing to add smaller remote and local workgroups for graphics, rendering and EFX. The new solution will be available in initial system configurations of 48-TB and 96-TB systems, which respectively support five and seven Xsan/Windows/Linux SAN clients.
