Wohler and VSN Partner to Accelerate and Simplify Media Asset Management and Transformation Workflows
Integration of Wohler RadiantGrid Software-Based Processing Framework Into VSN MAM Makes for Dramatic Efficiency Gains
SAN FRANCISCO -- July 8, 2014 -- Wohler Technologies today announced that Spain's VSN, an IT company specializing in high-performance multimedia content management solutions, is using Wohler's RadiantGrid Intelligent Media Transformation Platform(TM) as the transcoding and media transformation engine for its media asset management (MAM) product. Integration of this Wohler technology into its MAM solution enables VSN to offer end users a turnkey solution for high-performance media management and processing.
"The unique speed with which Wohler's RadiantGrid technology processes content translates to a significant benefit for customers using our VSN MAM solution," said Jordi Utiel, CEO at VSN. "By partnering with Wohler, we've been able to offer a platform that accelerates media processing workflows and, in turn, enables our customers to realize efficiency gains that are so critical in today's highly competitive media marketplace."
With more than 20 years of experience, VSN has developed technology and manufactured solutions to meet the needs of more than 1,000 customers -- TV stations, government organizations, universities, and news agencies -- in 100 countries. Tailored to the requirements of the broadcast industry, VSN solutions help to ensure comprehensive media management for TV stations as well as independent producers and distributors of audiovisual content.
Wohler's RadiantGrid applies TrueGrid(TM) file-based processing to manage and accelerate several tasks simultaneously while allowing users to realize true scalability across multiple machines. The result is a media transformation process that is simpler, faster, and dramatically more efficient than alternative solutions. Several installations of the VSN MAM with RadiantGrid technology have already been deployed successfully by customers in Asia-Pacific markets.
"VSN is a proven leader in IT-based solutions for the broadcast industry, and the intuitive interface and smart design of its solutions support straightforward management of media assets," said Craig Newbury, vice president of sales for the Wohler RadiantGrid business line.
