There are so many burning questions for anyone responsible for building an efficient, performant storage workflow for creative and production teams. Like 'How do I provide enough performance for demanding, and growing teams? When content is locked and handed off, now what - how can I protect it economically yet retrieve it quickly when they need ’that shot from last season’?
As they say, the road to ‘production hell’ is paved with good intentions - picking something cheap or ‘good enough’ now can become a nightmare later as the team grows, or you land an ambitious project where you want to show your best work.
In this session, we’ll cover some of the pitfalls of many ‘cheap enough or good enough’ solutions, and show you a path to a system that delivers exactly the mix of performance, protection, and budget you need to help your organization grow, and limit the number of sleepless nights you spend worrying about your storage including:
- Hot: where does Flash fit in my workflow, when do I need it versus a ‘really nice to have?’ Can I get the same performance with HDD based systems? How do they compare?
- Cold: is Cloud a good choice to store archived projects and assets? Is ‘object storage’ on-site better and why? When should I consider on-site object storage instead of public cloud?
