Front Porch Digital To Participate in DCIA Cloud Computing Conference

Front Porch Digital, a global leader in cloud-based content storage management (CSM) solutions, announced that it will participate in the Distributed Computing Industry Association (DCIA) Cloud Computing Conference at the 2013 NAB Show. The third annual DCIA event takes place on Monday and Tuesday, April 8 and 9, at the Las Vegas Convention Center. 

“We’re thrilled that our opening keynote speaker will be Amazon Web Services’ Global Digital Media Business Strategy Leader Mark Ramberg and that our marquee keynotes include Disney’s Program Director, Cloud Hosting, Chris Launey, and IBM’s Lead Partner for Global Business Services, Saul Berman,” said DCIA CEO Marty Lafferty. “We’re also very pleased to have on our agenda Brian Campanotti, chief technical officer of Front Porch Digital, who will speak on cloud-based and on-premises global content storage management.” 

Campanotti is one of the primary inventors of the Archive eXchange Format (AXF) and is active in standards body activities, helping to promote innovation and openness in the industry. Campanotti and his team have won Emmy Awards for their work in content-collection preservation technologies and for innovation in serial digital video technology. 

The Cloud Computing Conference at the 2013 NAB Show will feature more than 70 speakers in a two-day event track that will demonstrate the new ways cloud-based solutions are providing increased reliability and security, not only for commercial broadcasting and enterprise applications, but also for military and government implementations.

From collaboration during production, to post-production and formatting, to interim storage, delivery, and playback on fixed and mobile devices, to viewership measurement and big-data analytics, cloud computing is having an enormous impact on high-value multimedia distribution.
