About
An interview from the 2015 National Association of Broadcasters Convention in Las Vegas with Rick Clarkson of Signiant. Signiant has a history rooted in developing file transfer software for some of the world’s largest companies. Originally created to move huge code bases around the world for global software development, Signiant’s solutions are useful wherever there is a critical need to move large data sets with security, reliability, and speed. In this interview Rick talks with us about Media Shuttle & Flight.
Sending files with Media Shuttle is as simple as dragging and dropping them into a custom web page and clicking the transfer button. It’s so intuitive that users will never need a tutorial, training session, or even an email explanation. Media content files continue to get bigger and bigger – growing to 10's and 100's of GigaBytes – and are commonly part of daily workflows. Moving extremely large files is Signiants speciality, with Media Shuttle you don’t have to worry about compressing files, breaking them into smaller files, or loading them onto USB sticks or portable hard disks to get them where they need to go. Media Shuttle allows you to send any size file, anywhere, fast with no limits.
With Signiant Flight, you can now consider cloud storage for all kinds of time-sensitive use cases. Their patented acceleration technology uploads large files up to 200x faster than a standard transfer, providing immediate access to mission-critical data. With latency out of the picture, you can enjoy the benefits of cloud storage in a much broader range of applications. The Signiant Flight solution provides automatic scaling and load balancing as your cloud payloads ebb and flow. Acceleration technology requires software and compute resources adjacent to the cloud storage, and they handle those things for you. Even for a huge bulk upload project and even from a new location anywhere in the world, there’s no need for your tech team to spin up new servers – Flight scales up automatically to meet the demand.
Like all of Signiant’s software, Fight was built with secure design principles in mind from the beginning. Flight’s multiple layers of security and end-to-end encryption ensure that, even if one layer is breached, file content remains unreadable. Files are encrypted at rest, during transfer and retain a further layer of encryption while held in cloud storage, giving assets additional protection not provided by cloud storage vendors. With extensive 3rd party validation, Signiant Flight has the most secure file transfer protection available on the market.
