Previous hardware deployed for this application required workstations with external storage arrays and external peripherals filling up an entire short rack, all of which are now neatly packaged in a single 5U AberDailies enclosure. Meanwhile the Sony Digital Motion Picture Center (DMPC), located at Stage 7 on the Sony Pictures Studios Lot, is now fully networked with post-production workstations sharing Aberdeen NAS storage.
The DMPC is dedicated to the training and development of on-set and post-production workflows for the ever-growing world of 4K production. The addition of Aberdeen's central storage system will network the DMPC's post-production islands into a unified system that will emulate a real-world post house; enabling the exchange of both RAW and HD files from Sony's growing line of large-imager cameras among the industries' most popular applications. To handle Sony's 8K and 4K RAW files with on-set and post-production workstations, Aberdeen fine-tuned its 5U, 96TB AberNAS N51L network attached storage (NAS).
