ELEMENTS Suite Supports StorNext® 6

ELEMENTS' entire suite of human-centred media storage and server appliances now supports version 6 of Quantum's file system StorNext®.

ELEMENTS' product portfolio, including this latest development, will be demonstrated at IBC 2018 in Hall 7, Stand D08.

"StorNext file system, specifically designed for the media and entertainment industry, has been tightly integrated into ELEMENTS' appliances for more than 10 years," said André Kamps, CEO of ELEMENTS. "We're delighted to offer our customers the latest version, as it complements our on-board features perfectly. StorNext supports our media storage solutions with new functionalities that tune and optimise performance across all client workstations on the fly, and also frees up space by automatically removing file copies from different storage tiers. The new FlexSync option provides the capability to synchronise data between multiple StorNext systems in a highly manageable and automated fashion, without the need for full file system scans."

The company will also showcase its full set of award-winning workflow enhancement tools that are embedded in all of its appliances, including the ELEMENTS Media Library media asset management (MAM) tool. Media Library is capable of leveraging cognitive Artificial Intelligence (AI) engines powered by Veritone® to analyse, dissect, and index video and audio assets through automated monitoring to detect faces, objects, logos and much more, eliminating the need for manual tagging and logging. Even automatic speech-to-text transcriptions are possible enabling productive and intuitive searches of assets stored on the central media storage.
