Media and Entertainment

With the vast amounts of data generated in the media and entertainment industry, from monetising assets and improving content access, to preserving creative work and managing large-scale productions, the need for scalable, long-term archiving has never been greater.

Effective archive management helps reduce physical storage costs, streamline access for new projects, and unlock value from existing assets. It also plays a vital role in preserving cultural heritage for the future.

Fast, local storage is ideal for active projects, but more infrequently accessed content should be offloaded to lower-cost solutions.

Many media organisations now shift dormant data to the cloud instead of relying on legacy storage like tape libraries. Cloud storage removes the burden of hardware maintenance and keeps content accessible through simple platforms like Amazon S3. But while S3 is scalable, it can become costly, especially when retrieving data, with restore and egress charges often adding up, not to mention the extensive wait times, twiddling thumbs while your data is repackaged.

That’s where Cloud Cold Storage comes in. We offer the same user experience as S3, but without the hidden costs and delays. No fees for retrieval. No egress charges. Just straightforward, affordable long-term storage optimised for accessing large-scale media archives.

Reduce cloud spend, avoid unexpected charges and delays, and keep your primary storage focused on what matters most, your active, high-priority workflows.
