ORANGE, Calif. --(BusinessWire)- April 11th, 2011-Apace Systems Corporation®, a
leading media workflow, management and storage solution provider for media content
creation, distribution and archive, announces immediate availability of its vStor v4000
series network storage systems, enabling advanced real-time & shared collaborative
video editing with high throughput of access over multi-Gigabit Ethernet(GE) and 10GE

vStor v4000 is the fourth generation of Apace's flagship video editing storage products

Grass Valley Edius, Harris Velocity, Sony Vegas and Autodesk. With hundreds of field
deployments since 2002, vStor line offers choice of Hard Drive based storage and now
hybrid Hard Drive and Solid State Flash drives for different system performance and
capacity needs.
Apace appliances offer five core functionalities for advanced media editing workflows:
a) Low Latency performance: vStors with SSD based option offer unsurpassed aggregate
stream count access per workgroups with large user pools or performance driven editors
with need for manipulating HD class video formatted in DNxHD, ProRes and DVCPRO-
HD, etc.
b) Scalable performance and capacity: Clustered via 10GE backbone, each added
vStor, linearly scales the aggregate served video stream count and storage capacity for
workgroups. File and workspace management via Apace FileManager assures seamless
use of hybrid HDD/SSD storage in meeting performance and space requirement of
workspaces. Paired with Apace eStor near-line storage tape-less storage clusters are
facilitated.
c) Serviceability of applications: vStor as editing storage server can additionally house
Apace's media asset management (postMAM), storage consolidation (Octopa) and
camera ingest software (Ingesters) as integrated solution suites.
d) Assured ingest and play-out: vStors paired with direct ingest/play-out servers offer
no-frame drop ingest of multiple HD video streams, while bridging post production and
play-on-air workgroups together for broadcast customers.
e) Workspace virtualization with security of access: vStors assure workspace access by
users is decoupled from physicality of the workspace residing on its storage cluster, as
users are presented with their virtual workspace list for access. Security for access is
assured as each workspace has its predefined user access rights profile (Read/Write or
Read only) assigned by an administrator or project manager. Apace web based connector
software auto-mount of assigned workspaces to editing workstations decoupling user
from editing nodes as well. Web based GUI of vStors assures global IT serviceability.
