SAN MATEO, Calif. – Oct 6, 2017 –Cloudian, Inc., the innovation leader in enterprise object storage systems, today announced that chief marketing officer Jon Toor will speak at the 2017 Storage Visions® Conference. During the presentation, Toor will discuss the media and entertainment industry’s growing demand for scalable, large-capacity and high-resolution storage plus the challenges and solutions of achieving flexible and searchable archives.

What: During the presentation, “Has tape finally met its match? Three ways object storage delivers a faster, more scalable active archive,” Toor will discuss the growing need for scalable storage as higher resolution media requires increased storage capacity, and the need for instantaneous media access in today’s multi-format, time-pressured workflows.

Why: In the coming years, the media and entertainment industry will continue to aggregate vast amounts of unstructured data through the transformation of digital media content. Because the industry is moving at an unimaginably fast pace, companies cannot afford any delay in accessing content. What’s more, data archives today are becoming a profit center as content undergoes constant reuse and redistribution. Consequently, the need for limitless capacity is critical. In light of the influx of high-resolution files, tapes, and complex visuals, storage solutions must increasingly deliver a broad range of capabilities in order to ensure that creative industry assets are securely stored and accessible.
