Front Porch Digital To Integrate Sony Optical Disc Archive Technology Into DIVArchive

Front Porch Digital (Booths SU3602, SU3605) will integrate Sony’s new Optical Disc Archive products into its DIVArchive advanced CSM system as an alternative means of storage for both DIVArchive and LYNX cloud-based disaster-recovery and media-asset–storage service.

Optical Disc Archive stores data in a compact cartridge with 12 optical discs for high-capacity file-based archiving. Sony will introduce new Optical Disc Archive products later this year.

While Front Porch Digital customers will benefit from having an alternative storage technology, the integration benefits Sony’s Optical Disc Archive customers by giving them the ability to store important data safely, with scalable storage capacity and performance from DIVArchive and LYNX. Support from DIVArchive, which can integrate with multiple media libraries, will play an important role for a wide range of Sony’s broadcast customers in expanding storage space beyond Optical Disc Archive, migrating content from tape to Optical Disc Archive, and recovering from disaster. 

Besides the Front Porch Digital booths, the Optical Disc Archive/DIVArchive integration is on exhibit in Sony’s Booth C11001.
