EditShare Launch The Ultimate EFS Series, Next-Generation Storage Platform

EditShare has long been renowned for its robust storage nodes and networks, powered by its proprietary, media-aware EFS file system. At IBC 2024, the company has introduced an entirely new portfolio of storage devices designed to simplify and lower the cost of building shared collaborative storage. Whether a facility needs 32TB or more than half a petabyte in a single node, EditShare’s scalable solution can expand beyond 15 petabytes within a single namespace.

The Ultimate Series will be available in 2U, 3U, and 4U form factors, alongside a portable field unit for enhanced remote flexibility. The EFS 210, EFS 310, and EFS 410 nodes cater to a wide range of users, from boutique post-production houses to national broadcasters with mission-critical playout needs. The Ultimate Field portable unit, built on the latest NVMe architecture, delivers exceptional bandwidth on location and features integrated SwiftSync technology for secure, high-speed transfer of dailies to global EFS facilities.

Leveraging the latest advancements in technology and resource management, these storage nodes come at unprecedented price points, bringing the power of EFS to a broader audience. The new nodes also integrate with existing EditShare deployments and will come bundled with FLOW asset management, ARK LTO tape archival platform and MediaSilo review and approval tools.
