Here's an interesting configuration -- disk-based video servers, tape-based archives, FC-AL/GE specialty LAN -- which utilizes EMC-Avalon software to manage the initial 400 terabytes of USA Network and the SCI FI channel: The new centralized facility, which will initially serve content for both the USA Network and SCI FI Channel, is designed to replace traditional control rooms and analog tape machines with a multi-tier automated computer network optimized for storing, managing, and delivering broadcast content in completely digital format. Conversion to digital server technology will allow USA Cable to store and stage content more efficiently and more automatically than traditional video robotic systems. It also provides scalability, allowing for easy expansion to support additional broadcast projects.......... .......Perhaps most important, Hennessy said, was the fact that USA Networks is a beneficiary of the many of hours of testing and fine tuning that Ampex, Avalon and Grass Valley performed in their labs on Grass Valley Group's new Profile network-attached archive application. The network-attached archive provides any Profile video server access to any DST drive within the archive. Message 14266745
