Simplify and Scale Your Media Asset Management Storage and Archive

Improve workflow and management at scale with a flexible, feature-rich solution

Increasing volumes of content, the need to handle new formats and higher resolutions (4K, 8K, HDR & VR), and the growing need for quick access from geo-dispersed locations are creating new operational challenges for broadcasters, media and enterprise companies. They are resulting in escalating costs as well as new management and technical complexities, particularly for scaling associated storage capacity, infrastructure, and systems.

Cloudian Hyperstore and Empress eMAM seamlessly integrate as a best-in-class media asset management solution that lets you locate, manage and share content across multiple locations.

Cloudian and Empress are delivering new levels of technical and cost efficiencies for your media workflow environment: with an end-to-end platform that flexibly scales storage and archive capacities from terabytes to hundreds of petabytes with a single namespace and view of content across all locations serving workflow needs.

Highly available with strong encryption for security, this joint solution is simple to deploy, expand, and manage to meet your collaboration and workflow objectives — now and into the future.

Cloudian HyperStore

Cloudian’s HyperStore petabyte-scale object storage platform provides an elegant, cost-effective, on-premises solution for media asset storage and archive capacity growth.

Designed to meet the need for large, secure, highly resilient and flexible storage infrastructure at a low cost, HyperStore seamlessly stores, moves, and protects media assets across locations, including the public cloud.

Cloudian clusters upgrade non-disruptively with newer, higher capacity nodes, eliminating costly overprovisioning. HyperStore’s automatic data verification and self-healing functions provide reliability and resilience against hardware failures, while its data encryption, both in-flight and at rest, safeguard valuable assets against threats of deletion or theft via malware.
