Avid, Quantum Integrate Archive Storage Options

SAN JOSE, CA (NAB 2016) — Quantum Corp. (www.quantum.com) announces that Avid (www.avid.com) has developed a connector for the company's Interplay|MAM system and Quantum's StorNext Storage Manager that enables seamless integration of Quantum archive storage systems into Avid environments.

The Avid connector for StorNext Storage Manager gives users the ability to access and control StorNext archive and restore functions through Interplay|MAM, including automated movement of content across different archive storage tiers: Quantum's Lattus object storage, tape libraries and Q-Cloud services. Integrated into various business processes within Interplay|MAM, this solution provides more intelligent, long-term content management, faster access to a nearline archive tier via standard network protocols and better protection of Avid projects with an archive strategy.

In addition to developing a solution that enables tight integration of Avid Interplay|MAM with Quantum archive solutions, Avid also has joined the Quantum Advantage Program, which provides a platform for partners to test and qualify their technology with Quantum offerings and provide integrated, best-in-class solutions that deliver enhanced value to customers' workflows.
