SeaChange International has announced that it has achieved the industrys highest Final Cut Pro performance using its 10G IP Universal MediaLibrary (UML) Grid storage platform.
A single UML node with 72 high-capacity SATA drives delivers 78 simultaneous Apple Pro Res HQ streams (220Mbps each), totaling 17Gbps throughput over two active/active 10G IP network links. The UML can support more simultaneous SD/HD streams for playout or editing.
The SeaChange Universal MediaLibrary (UML) Grid Storage is a storage solution that utilises iSCSI architecture and offers high performance, full redundancy, and massive scalability.
It features efficient media workflows and achieves high real-time performance and employs a media-centric file layout that allows space efficiency for small files and high-streaming performance for large media files.
The UML Grid is also suited for multi-user environments because of its client-based bandwidth control, integration with LDAP and Active Directory for IT-friendly multi-user access administration, and file notification that allows efficient media inventory management.
Furthermore, the UML Grid allows dynamic online expansion in less than 10 seconds, scaling both capacity and performance by adding a UML node to the grid.
Speaking about the SeaChange Universal MediaLibrary Grid ,Bang Chang, vice president for storage products, stated : With the highest video playout density and storage density, the SeaChange Universal MediaLibrary Grid supports more Final Cut Pro users in a multi-user collaborative environment at a lower cost than alternative storage products.
