NAB Show: StorageDNA Expands Toolset for DNAfabric V.2.5, Cloud Optimized, Unstructured Data Management

At NAB 2023, StorageDNA will be showcasing DNAfabric v2.5.

Expanding upon its cloud-optimized, unstructured toolset offering, it is adding features to DNAfabric including a new user interface, new workflows for Avid Technology, Inc., and updates to their free online cloud storage optimization tool.

“We are excited to showcase this release of DNAfabric at NAB 2023. We expect our greatly expanded toolset for Avid and a new user interface will provide major benefits to clients looking to build more hybrid/cloud workflows.” said Tridib Chakravarty (tC), CEO.

DNAfabric v2.5 adds multiple workflows designed for Avid Nexis and Avid Edit on Demand. These workflows are designed to maximize the benefits of cloud while preserving existing investments in on-premises infrastructure.

Key workflows include:

• Avid Nexis Cloud-Based ransomware and DR
  A complete set of scanning and cloud-optimized backup/snapshot tools designed to provide the most robust levels of early detection, backup and recovery from modern threats like ransomware.
• Avid Nexis cloud tiering
  A way to tier to deep cloud storage (AWS Glacier, Glacier Deep, Azure Blob Archive, Wasabi, Backblaze, Symple Nebula, Seagate LyveCloud, and more). Enables stubs and self-service retrievals compatible with Avid projects, bins, and media workspaces.
• Avid Nexis to Avid EOD ingest and sync
  An automated sync tool between Avid Nexis and Edit On Demand allows users to build hybrid workflows to maximize cloud infrastructure. DNAfabric allows editors to collaborate across bins, projects, and media workspaces in multiple locations and the cloud.
• User interface
  A user interface designed for the new breed of ‘iPhone’ users and data managers enables instant, ‘out-of-the-box’ useability and workflow creation requiring minimal training and end-user expertise.
• Cloud storage – Cost optimization tool
  Updates to the free Cloud Storage Cost Optimization Tool will be available allowing end users to accurately predict cloud storage costs across hundreds of tiers and providers of cloud storage. The free tool periodically scans multiple cost APIs across AWS, Google, Azure, and more enabling accurate cost modeling for end users.
