The designers at a leading provider of private broadcasting networks opted to integrate FASTCopy into their latest product to meet their need for 100% reliable network data distribution.
The product is a complete hardware-software solution that supports private broadcasting networks in retail and other corporate environments. It enables users to create complex broadcast schedules of digital media assets- videos, graphics files, flash presentations, etc. Once created, these intricate schedules are assigned to flexible groupings of Leaf Nodes and transmitted via FASTCopy throughout the selected network. The Leaf Nodes, in turn, play back the distributed schedules and their components, offering customers unparalleled, centralized control of an entire private broadcasting network.
From the outset, our client was aware that their product’s success would depend on stable, reliable distribution of content through enterprise-wide networks. Rather than elect to write the file transfer protocol in-house, our client knew that writing a file transfer engine with sufficient power and flexibility to meet their product’s requirements could take years of development, and thus, considerably lengthen time-to-market.
Our client was able to rapidly integrate FASTCopy into their product and incorporate it directly into their process flow. The selection of FASTCopy’s proprietary management and distribution technology has provided their product with:
§ A totally reliable and flexible file-transfer mechanism
§ Direct control over file distribution
§ Support for hundreds or even thousands of Leaf Nodes on a variety of network topologies
