EditShare FLEX (previously branded EFSv) is a straightforward way to embrace the advantages of the cloud - a suite of turnkey, ready-to-go solutions for remote collaborative workflows and video editing from anywhere. FLEX reflects the powerful business trends in post today, including the migration to a “work anywhere” environment, with ready access to content wherever the creative staff need to be. In adopting cloud storage and processing, it also meets the move towards an OpEx financial model, with the cloud hosting and storage fees flexing to reflect the level of business. “EditShare began leading the industry's shift to the cloud a few years ago by expanding many of its existing core product capabilities – openness, interoperability and scale – to the cloud,” commented Stephen Tallamy, CTO, EditShare. “EditShare FLEX is the result of these investments and we’re excited to show the industry how it can greatly simplify how their teams may choose to work.” Leading the new initiatives is FLEX Cloud Edit. In its simplest form it provides media asset management, high performance software-defined storage, and virtual workstations in the AWS cloud. The real beauty of FLEX is that it provides a powerful but completely open hosting environment, so users are free to use whatever editing software they prefer. “We continually listen to what the industry is telling us, and this is a direct response to current demands,” said Tallamy. “With FLEX, our customers can maintain full control over their working environment and the security of their content, while gaining the huge benefits of remote working and editing-in-the-cloud. “FLEX offers turnkey bundles that allow customers to get started quickly with a known configuration and pricing profile. Our professional services team can work with customers to tailor the system to exactly meet their needs,” Tallamy added. “The customer maintains operational oversight and budgetary control, with no over-provisioning so no over-paying.” Futhermore EditShare showcased FLOW Media Management & Workflow. Creatives will be excited to see project synchronization with NLEs, including Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, and EditShare’s FLOW workflow tools. For News and Sports fast turnaround editing, FLOW can now ingest NDI contribution feeds and immediately present them for editing. New at the show was Nearline Storage with EFS 60NL. It provides 60 drive bays in 4U of rack space. Within the EditShare environment, nearline storage is ideal for content which is needed but not being immediately worked on, ready to be transferred to the online servers with virtually no delay. Another highlight at the booth was the EFS Multi-Site.
