EditShare boosts performance and connectivity with furthe...

EditShare , the technology leader that enables storytellers to create and manage collaborative media workflows, will launch a significant raft of technology upgrades and new functionality at IBC2023. In addition to the new user interface, EditShare One, announced in July, the company is adding NVMe capabilities to provide ultimate performance in intensive workloads, and Swift Link, bringing up to 10x improvement in performance between remote workstations and EFS systems that are located on prem or in FLEX cloud environments.

Large and busy facilities place heavy demands on storage systems, particularly when content is in demand by multiple users. To provide a very high performance cache in this sort of environment, EditShare now offers the ability to use NVMe (non-volatile memory express) solid-state storage.

Based on the latest Gen11 platform from HPE, the NVMe module has 24 drives per node, with user-selectable capacities. EFS supports multiple nodes, so users are free to construct the storage architecture that best meets their business and productivity requirements. This new platform gives systems architects extremely high levels of performance, without sacrificing the protection and reliability that is central to the EditShare approach.

Users now routinely expect EFS storage architectures that bridge multiple facilities and link to the cloud, but also offer access from remote locations and for creators working at home. Swift Link provides a massive speed boost for remote clients connecting over a VPN or other high latency connection boosting throughput by as much as 10 times.

Users at home or on a remote location connected via VPN can preview and edit both proxies and high-res media, just by using EditShare Connect, with built-in Swift Link and its automatic latency detection. EFS optimizes the connection around the network latency, delivering much more flexibility for remote users without changing the equipment they use or the way they work. The user doesn't need to know that they are on a high-latency connection, EditShare Connect will determine that for them and make adjustments accordingly.

EditShare continues to achieve the highest possible security levels. The new release now ships with Ubuntu 2020, and is beginning to introduce SAML (security assertion markup language) within the SSO (single sign-on) authentication for externally-facing FLOW applications. Together, these provide practical and very effective protection against cyber-security attacks.

"Our goal is always to make it easy for creative people to produce their best work," said Sunil Mudholkar, VP Product Management at EditShare. "But alongside the practical tools, we recognize the ongoing need to enhance the underlying technology to ensure that we deliver industry-defining levels of performance, reliability, and security. Our rolling program of software upgrades allows us to consistently improve our offering, and at IBC we will showcase new functionality like NVMe and Swift Link, while also being available to discuss future enhancements and security boosts."

Demonstrations of EditShare's proven storage solutions and workflow software can be seen at IBC2023, on stand 7.A35. For further information on all EditShare solutions, please visit the website at www.editshare.com
