SGT and Active Circle in Technology Partnership

For digital content management solution

French companies SGT, a software vendor in the broadcast and media industry, and Active Circle, a software vendor specialized in file storage and data management, have signed a technology partnership.  

The two companies will work together to provide an integrated, customized and flexible digital content management solution. With this offer they address broadcasters, post-production firms and all suppliers that manage, qualify, store and repurpose large volumes of digital media content. The two solutions integrate and offer an integrated workflow, from ingest to archiving.

SGT’s VEDA is a solution for video content management (Media Asset Management) and for workflow automation. VEDA responds to the evolution in broadcast, such as digitalization of content, multi-acquisition of media from different sources, advanced search and content update capabilities. Thanks to VEDA’s search and retrieve feature, for example, users can better exploit all available content. They can search, recuperate and repurpose the good information out of an increasingly large volume of archived data.

Active Circle proposes a solution for the storage, preservation, protection and lifecycle management of large volumes of digital data. With Active Circle’s software solution, users can create a virtual storage space on a hard disk or a tape, using hierarchical storage management (HSM). This storage space can be organized in sub-spaces that can be shared, stored on disk, or archived on a LTO tape. Data access is guaranteed due to cluster mode, and data is secured through automated local or remote replication.

Richard de Jong, Area Manager at SGT said: "Our partnership with Active Circle is strategic and proves that our vision goes beyond the limits of our own product portfolio. Together, we address big broadcasters and post-production firms willing to set up a complete workflow, from ingest to archiving."

Philippe Boyon, Marketing and Business Development Director at Active Circle, added: "Today, our clients face a double challenge: they need to securely store a growing volume of digital content and make it available at any time in a digital workflow because it is their ‘raw material’. Together with SGT, we now provide our customers with the answer to this double challenge."
