New certified clients developed by leading M&E partners, including Avid®, CatDV, eMAM, IPV Ltd., Imagen, Levels Beyond, Marquis, Vizrt, as well as others, and the introduction of Eon Browser for non-managed creative assets, shows broad adoption of Spectra BlackPearl-based solutions in every size organisation and in differing market segments. It is the industry’s premier storage platform for all workflows.  
 
M&E customers rely on production storage to edit, create, complete projects and maintain their catalogue, but then expect to preserve these valuable assets forever on a modern multi-tier archival solution that delivers quick and concurrent response with a predictable cost model as it scales over time. The M&E industry grapples with increasing volumes of video, improved resolutions and mounting costs associated with traditional archival solutions using middleware. Industry-wide, storage solutions are challenged to meet this demand. Spectra BlackPearl with its seamless support for many tiers of storage, including public cloud, meets this challenge in its simplicity to deploy, by scaling easily and affordably to accommodate growing content. The solution offers direct integration to user applications and workflows to its tape-friendly ecosystem, helping to alleviate the burden on production storage.
 
The growing number of available BlackPearl clients is a testimony to wide adoption of this modern approach to “active” content archiving. M&E users now have access to a broad array of BlackPearl-based solutions with its network of integrated partners. Through key partnerships and its Developer Program, Spectra Logic continues to expand and deliver modern and standards-based, leading storage solutions that best fit to the ever-changing needs of this modern era in the M&E market.
