Smart Media Asset Management solution for countless hours of video footage.
The “digital revolution”, has had a profound impact on television industry necessitating the massive shift from analog to digital content. In the field of television quite a lot of important video materials are accumulated over a period of time. These resources are historical and precious and it is important to preserve them and reuse them. Video materials saved in traditional analog tapes often cause more and more problems in storing and retrieving the material for reuse. The most efficient way to digitize and manage growing amount of media data is using a Media Asset Management (MAM) system. MAM can safely store and manage valuable media data, then make them retrievable and reusable.
Monarch SMART MAM is an integrated solution of ingests, catalog, archive and search modules and offers the most flexible and powerful management ability for the media production facilities, especially the broadcast channels and television studios.

We have presented the first approach of implementing a MAM system – “SMART MAM Basic”. It is designed to fulfill the basic requirement and it can be easily expanded to match your fast growing needs.
This basic configuration consists of one server and one performer workstation. All the user applications like ingest, tape print, catalog, import, export archive and search are server varies from 2 TB to 8 TB. It can store from 600 hours upto 24000+ hours of low res clips as online proxy files for immediate retrievingThis basic configuration consists of one server and one performer workstation. All the user applications like ingest, tape print, catalog, import, export archive and search are . The flexible system configuration allows you to upgrade both system storage capacity and number of workstations. |
