StorNext Pro Foundation arrives in European market

Quantum Corp. has announced that StorNext Pro Foundation, its new integrated shared storage system for smaller workgroups, is now available in Europe. Targeted at media professionals in post and broadcast as well as those managing corporate and government video, StorNext Pro Foundation is the latest addition to the StorNext Pro Solutions line and is built on Quantum’s StorNext 5 collaboration and workflow software.

Ready to deploy within new or existing networks, StorNext Pro Foundation gives smaller production workgroups a high-performance, attractively priced solution for managing content from ingest to delivery to archive. The underlying StorNext 5 platform enables versatility to ensure that, as customers’ workflows evolve, the solution will provide the power to meet their needs for content ingest from multiple sources, collaborative content creation, on-time delivery in any format and content preservation for future monetisation.

StorNext Pro Foundation provides full Xsan compatibility, enabling smaller workgroups — such as ad agencies, corporate video production departments and houses of worship that create significant amounts of video — to refresh or upgrade their Xsan storage environments. Current StorNext users can also leverage StorNext Pro Foundation to add smaller workgroups for graphics, rendering and EFX. StorNext Pro Foundation comes in either 48TB or 96TB configurations, which respectively support five and seven simultaneous Xsan/Windows/Linux SAN clients, including two Windows/Linux SAN clients as core system components.
