Object Matrix Also Member of Active Archive Alliance

The Active Archive Alliance announced that Object Matrix Ltd has joined the organization, which promotes strategies to solve data growth challenges.

Object Matrix joins a growing number of storage and IT vendors that support the use of active archive solutions for data lifecycle management.

“We’re pleased to welcome Object Matrix to the Active Archive Alliance,” said Peter Faulhaber, chairman of the Active Archive Alliance and president and CEO of Fujifilm Recording Media USA., Inc. “The Alliance is dedicated to bringing the best of breed technologies together to provide users with active archive solutions for intelligent data management. Companies across the globe are embracing active archive technologies to manage the complexities of vast data volumes and realize the value of their data.“

Rising data volumes are intensifying the need for efficient, cost-effective active archives, which manage data for rapid search, retrieval, and analytics. Active archiving enables organizations to gain value from retained data quickly. By leveraging an intelligent data management layer, active archives allow fast access to archival data across a virtual file system and manage data between storage systems and media types.

Object Matrix is the software company that pioneered object storage and the modernization of media archives. It enables collaboration, increases operational efficiencies, and empowers creativity through the deployment of MatrixStore, an on-prem, hybrid and cloud storage platform. Its unified deployment approach ensures content spans on-prem and cloud storage, while its focus on the media industry gives it an understanding of the challenges organizations face when protecting, processing and sharing video content.

“Now more than ever, media organizations require solutions that enable creative and production teams to self-serve access to content from work or remotely from anywhere,” said Jonathan Morgan, CEO, Object Matrix. “Our MatrixStore solution delivers the inherent scalability and interoperability of object-based storage, as well as instant access to data and metadata: and our customers include some of the world’s largest media organizations. With MatrixStore, organizations have the protection and governance for the lifetime of any content. We are excited to join the Active Archive Alliance and help promote active archive strategies to solve today’s data growth challenges.“
