What if your storage system enabled essential media processing applications such as transcoding, QC or rendering?
Turbocharging the Digital Media Workflow
MediaGrid™
has put the power right where it is most needed-with the content. Eliminate the need to move data to seperate digital islands and then back into storage.
Workflow Integration
Omneon MediaGrid™ is the first content storage system that plays an active part in the media workflow. More than just high performance shared storage for all users within a facility, MediaGrid™ constantly adapts to the changing resiliency and bandwidth requirements of the media workflow and actively performs media processing functions on stored content. MediaGrid™ also easily integrates with workflow and content management applications through open file protocols and APIs.
Introducing Active Storage
The MediaGrid™ architecture is designed to simutaneously protect media while providing maximum access to it. As data is transferred to the system, it is divided, replicated and distributed across the entire array of disks. This arrangement provides built-in data integrity by maintaining replicas of files stored in different locations of the storage pool. File availability is optimized by dynamically increasing the number of copies of high-demand content. It instantly responds to data errors and automatically recovers without lengthy rebuilds and dangerous periods of vulnerability.
Grid Storage & Grid Computing
With an elegant grid-based architecture and simplified system management, MediaGrid™ achieves levels of performance, scalability and resiliency that cannot be matched by traditional SAN or NAS storage products.
Smart Scalability™
MediaGrid™ allows content producers to customize a system to meet their specific requirements for access bandwidth, storage capacity, file protection and media processing power.
A Mission-Critical System Built for 24/7 Reliability
A system with no single point of failure, the Omneon MediaGrid™ is designed for ultra-reliuable, non-stop 24/7 operation. MediaGrid™ provides for expansion of capacity, bandwidth and application processing power without shutting down or disrupting continuing facility operations. Media stored on the MediaGrid™ is located on interconnected yet independent ContentServers, thus allowing for a loss of disks or servers without compromising valuable data. Moreover, MediaGrid™ can eliminate the period of vulnerability associated with RAID-based file system rebuilds.
