• Access Integration - Mission Critical resource with user integration to common video tools including : Editing, MAM systems, on-air, automation, traffic and video server providers.
• Rapid Access - Video is quickly delivered to multiple clients on the network. Time-code based partial restore allows frame-accurate retrieval of video clips from larger segments, improving workflow performance.
• Long Term Preservation - Redundant systems protect your data while the Storage Plan Manager provides user defined settings that manage video access and archive, pushing infrequently used content to data tape storage.
• In-line Analysis and Transcoding - Requested video is transcoded on the fly to the desired format and can be analyzed based on user threshold settings for pass/fail determinations; multiple transcoders can be integrated in the DIVArchive architecture.
• Access Gateway - Controlled access by user or controlling application allowing specific secure content retrieval.
• Serviceability - DIVArchive supports replaceable components without operation disruption; has SNMP connectivity to existing facility monitoring systems; and is supported with 24 x 7 phone service and secure VPN access.

DIVAdirector

DIVAdirector is an inexpensive and easy to deploy media asset management system. DIVAdirector provides an easy to use, permission based web browser that enables complete access to your file based content.

The DIVAdirector option can be added to any DIVArchive system to enable you to search and view archived content.

• Powerful Search Tools - Locates content by searching any metadata fields. Complex queries can be saved with user-friendly names. You can save commonly-used searches.
• Clip Restore - Restores full or frame-accurate partial clips and delivers in selected resolution/formats to destinations such as editing suites or traffic systems.
• Content Control - Updates, modifies and deletes metadata from archive; deletes content as permitted. Fully embedded database engine.
• Privilege Control - Sets access control by group or user for content and/or proxy viewing.
• Web Based - Runs from any location.
• Proxy Viewing - You can view any content with the built-in Windows Media Player. With the player controls you can find exactly the frames you are looking for. Shot lists of selected clips or scenes can be previewed and then easily saved.

Options

DIVAprotect continuously monitors the media and tape drives to ensure protection of your assets. User preferences determine quality standards for tape and drive replacement, maintaining a complete history of health and performance. Threshold warnings determine system maintenance need, and complete drive and media performance histories are logged and displayed graphically.

DIVAnet is the global solution for content distribution. DIVAnet allow the interconnection of any number of fully independent DIVArchive systems through an access gateway. Automated file replication to mirror sites provide a clean and easy method for local distribution and catastrophic backup. DIVAnet is a Wide Area Network Solution with security and bandwidth control. Networks are monitored for problems and DIVAnet ensures final delivery of content. Storage Plan Manager settings determine rules for replication, deletion, and transcoding based on parameters such as age and location. Synchronization tools ensure content is examined for consistency between locations. Scheduling capabilities maximize off-hour bandwidth for non-critical transfers. Content security is included for controlling viewing privileges.

DIVAanalyze provides in-path, faster than real-time, quality analysis of video for quick assessment. Proxy or full resolution displays of the fault can be examined and managed. User defined parameters set types of faults and thresholds for detection. Time-code based feedback provides specific error location within the video. Multiple DIVAnalyze engines can be added to the network.

DIVAgrid leverages the proven highly distributed DIVArchive architecture providing a vast load balanced media centric solution. DIVAgrid provides increased performance and content availability of nearline stored video. DIVArchive “Actors” combine to form Virtual Arrays for fast access and load balancing for content in high demand. Protection, redundancy and privileges are built into the system and can be controlled automatically or on-demand. Each DIVAgrid node supports up to three SAA direct attach high speed RAID5 disk arrays each with 14TB of storage. This scaled system can provide near limitless storage and bandwidth capability.
