]]> Nvidia Chooses Facilis Technology to Streamline Workflow https://news.broadfield.com/nvidia-chooses-facilis-technology-to-streamline-workflow/ Mon, 07 Apr 2025 14:00:00 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=31466 Nvidia Chooses Facilis Technology to Streamline Workflow

Nvidia required a robust and scalable storage solution to address the growing demands of high-resolution video/audio workflows. The company sought a system that would improve collaboration, increase storage capacity, and provide reliable performance for its creative teams. 

Facilis worked with a local Reseller/Integrator, Alt Systems, to design and deploy the system. Tim Canella, Senior Account Executive at Alt Systems, worked with Eric Ladenburg, Director of Video and Photography at Nvidia, to provide his team with shared storage to allow them to ingest/record and edit content from trade shows, technical conferences and events where their Executive Team may be speaking.

Facilis Technology’s HUB48 1PB server was selected for its high bandwidth, real-time collaboration, intuitive management interface, and ease of use. The solution enables Nvidia’s team to:

  • Collaborate seamlessly: Multiple editors and artists can work on the same projects simultaneously, eliminating bottlenecks and improving workflow.
  • Handle high-resolution media: The system provides the bandwidth and performance needed to handle demanding 4K, 8K, and other high-resolution media formats.
  • Scale easily: The modular design of the Facilis system allows Nvidia to easily expand storage capacity as their needs grow.
  • Simplify management: The intuitive management interface makes it easy for the IT team to monitor and maintain the storage system.
  • Integrate with existing workflows: the Facilis system integrates smoothly with Nvidia’s existing editing and finishing applications.

About Facilis Technology
Facilis Technology was founded in 2003 and has been a leader in shared storage solutions for collaborative media creation for over 20 years. Facilis develops and manufactures high-capacity, turn-key shared storage systems and dynamic workflow solutions for post-production and content creation professionals working in the film, broadcast, education, and corporate markets. Their production-proven solutions are designed for ease of use, high performance, and scalability.
