Workflow outfit, EditShare, has launched its next generation of storage devices at IBC in Amsterdam, the Ultimate EFS Series.
The new portfolio of storage devices is “designed to simplify and lower the cost of building shared collaborative storage.”
The Ultimate Series will be available in 2U, 3U, and 4U form factors, alongside a portable field unit for enhanced remote flexibility. The EFS 210, EFS 310, and EFS 410 nodes cater to a wide range of users, from boutique post-production houses to national broadcasters with mission-critical playout needs.
The Ultimate Field portable unit, built on the latest NVMe architecture, “delivers exceptional bandwidth on location and features integrated SwiftSync technology for secure, high-speed transfer of dailies to global EFS facilities.”
Leveraging the latest advancements in technology and resource management, these storage nodes come at “unprecedented price points, bringing the power of EFS to a broader audience.” The new nodes also integrate with existing EditShare deployments and will come bundled with FLOW asset management, ARK LTO tape archival platform and MediaSilo review and approval tools.
“From the beginning, our mission has been to equip media professionals with practical, powerful, and cost-effective tools,” said Tara Montord, Co-Founder and EVP of Sales at EditShare. “The innovations we’re launching at IBC give users more power, speed, and capacity without sacrificing security—all at a price point that’s truly groundbreaking.
“With these advances, we’re delivering a revolution in content and workflow management that empowers the creative industry to do what they do best: tell great stories,” Montford added.
