Nyriad and DigitalGlue have announced a partnership designed to, “dramatically improve the performance, resilience, and efficiency of media production workflows while removing complex IT-centric tasks and simplifying them with a streamlined user experience,” according to the announcement.
Nyriad’s UltraIOTM data storage system uses the processing power of GPUs and advanced algorithms to deliver performance, resilience, and efficiency. DigitalGlue’s creative.space platform is purpose-built to make enterprise storage simple to use and manage without the need for specialized knowledge or a dedicated IT department. The combination is designed to allow creatives and contributors to deploy, manage and elastically scale their production workflows more quickly, easily and affordably.
“DigitalGlue’s creative.space software coupled with Nyriad’s UltraIO storage system offers high performance, unbeatable data protection, and unmatched value at scale,” says Sean Busby, DigitalGlue’s President. “The solution eliminates the compromise between cost and quality while providing creative teams complete control over their valuable media.”
“The UltraIO and creative.space solutions solve the unique needs of creatives and contributors while satisfying the technical and operational challenges faced by traditional IT organizations,” says Derek Dicker, CEO, Nyriad. “Performance rivals flash-based systems, the efficiency and resiliency are equal to or better than the top-tier storage platforms on the market – and the ease with which users can manage multiple petabytes of data is extraordinary.”
The joint Nyriad UltraIO and DigitalGlue creative.space solution is designed for:
• Performance - With high read and write bandwidth capabilities, creative.space plus the UltraIO platform can remove storage as a bottleneck. Editing inline without the need to copy data between file systems or create lower resolution proxies can save hours of wasted time and reduce the number of files to manage.
• Resilience - The UltraIO system is designed to withstand up to 20 drives failing simultaneously with no data loss while maintaining 95% of its maximum throughput.
• Efficiency - UltraIO storage allows customers to use up to 90% of the raw capacity deployed in the environment. Tools available in the creative.space software suite are designed to reduce operational and management overhead. While reducing the amount of raw capacity needed to purchase, UltraIO’s efficient platform is designed to reduce the carbon footprint of storage by up to 70%.
• Simplicity and Ease of Deployment - The combination of creative.space and the UltraIO storage platform deploys seamlessly into customers’ environments without the need to refresh or replace existing technologies. The combined solution can provide opportunities to consolidate and streamline production tasks such as rendering, streaming, non-linear editing, content ingest, and active archive, among others, into a single, easy-to-use platform.
