Facilis Technology, a leading provider of shared storage solutions for collaborative media production networks, is introducing new client-side caching workflows, MAM features, and HUB feature enhancements. At this year’s NAB Show, the company also unveiled new product offerings to advance creative workflows within its HUB architecture.
Jim McKenna, Chief Marketing Officer at Facilis Technology says, “FastCache is a game-changer for both remote and on-prem workflows, using NVMe client-side caching to enhance the already superb performance of the Facilis Shared File System. We invite all attendees to see how seamless remote editing can be with Facilis software solutions built around the award-winning HUB architecture.”
Key Innovations in the Facilis HUB Ecosystem shown at NAB Show 2025 included the HUB family of products, which has serviced thousands of facilities from major broadcasters and studios, large event venues and house of worship, to small corporate video departments and student labs. New products and features include:
New Facilis FastCache Workflow Accelerator
Enables local data caching on any workstation connected to a Facilis HUB server via the Facilis Shared File System. Whether connected via LAN, standard VPN, or Facilis’ high-performance WANLink connectivity for high-speed remote access, all data is cached on local SSD/NVMe drives. This invisible caching preserves project collaboration and eliminates cumbersome cloud-synchronization workflows.
“Using WANLink and FastCache, we’re achieving the best performance I’ve seen for remote users,” says Sam Wolf, Associate Director of Production Services at Morning Brew.
“So nice to not have the latency issues that I have when I remote into a LAN workstation from home. FastCache is almost as good as being there,” says David Ritsher Sr. Editor, CIR Studios
New Facilis FastTracker AI
For 2025, Facilis is introducing advanced model-based AI for objects, signs, landmarks and facial recognition. On-prem transcription has also been enhanced, with capability to recognize and transcribe up to 30 languages in mixed use, with no internet upload. A new Resolve panel services metadata import and project source gathering within the Blackmagic Resolve application for seamless integration with Asset Management.
New version 8.3 of Facilis HUB Software Management
Enhancements in the Facilis Console provide more flexibility for multilingual deployments, better security and reporting.
New features include:
*Customizable console language localization
*Secure remote Admin Console application
*Improved Active Directory integration with authentication via Kerberos ticket validation
*Color-coded capacity display and enhanced Smart data reporting
“NAB Show 2025 is where we connect with clients and partners to showcase how Facilis solutions are transforming media production,” explains Shane Rodbourn, Chief Operating Officer. “We’re driven by a passion for innovation, collaboration, and, above all, our clients’ success. We’re dedicated to building the tools they need to work smarter, faster, and more efficiently in this ever-changing industry.”
