CloudSoda + the power of AWS

CloudSoda + AWS

CloudSoda provides the data movement management to and from AWS, enabling the use of AWS Media Intelligence solutions while tracking storage movement in the cloud and offering valuable insight into the cost and speed of data transfers. Metadata generated by the Media Intelligence solution is leveraged by Media Asset Management systems, therefore having a CloudSoda integrated plugin that seamlessly does the data movement is critical. CloudSoda provides protocol agnostic connections that work with all siloed data and on premises storage.

Ecosystem Aware

Dry Run

Dry Run

Before doing a one-time migration or policy-based data movement CloudSoda allows you to gain insight into how much you are spending for your selected data set on storage, how much it will cost to move the data (including egress fees) and how much it is to store on the selected new storage.

How it Works

CloudSoda's data management software is storage-agnostic and ecosystem-aware, providing companies with unprecedented visibility and clarity into their unstructured data. CloudSoda eliminates hidden storage costs by using predictive analytics and user defined policies that intelligently and transparently move data across tiers and from edge to core to cloud for optimal data placement, peak performance, and maximum savings. Simple, flat and fair pricing and unmatched ease of use take the cost, complexity, and surprises out of managing data at any scale. CloudSoda is proud to be working closely with the AWS Media2Cloud, Media Intelligence and Media Supply Chain initiatives.

CloudSoda + HPA

Open

CloudSoda was proud to be part of the thought leadership project “Found Lederhosen” at this year’s Hollywood Professional Association (HPA) Tech Retreat 2021. The multi-vendor architecture illustrated a modernized cloud-based collaborative workflow all the way from the camera, through work-in-process, delivery, and archive. By leveraging CloudSoda in this reference architecture, CloudSoda was able to provide never before seen context to creative end-users around the cost and time metrics to store and restore media from a cloud archive.

The media pipeline as used on “Found Lederhosen” is designed to be replicated for real-world use, reach out to us so we can show you the power of an intelligent archive using CloudSoda.
