Overview of FileCatalyst Direct
• FTP/TCP Challenges Explained

FTP is a very serial process. Each packet of data must be received before a new packet is sent = Decreased transfer speed
FileCatalyst completely saturates the pipe by sending multiple blocks of data = Increased transfer speed

FileCatalyst ISV partner Ecosystem
• Why?– Big Data Explosion
• 90% of data today is file-based
• Media assets getting larger in size
– Bandwidth diversity• variable bandwidth rates (slow to super fast)
• Bandwidth rates (pipe) increasing while costs are decreasing
• Diverse networks (terrestrial, satellite, wireless)
• Network conditions (degradation over distance, packet loss, noise, latency)
– Collaborative / Global workforce• teams geographically disperse
• networks degrade over distance
– Media / Broadcast customers buy solutions• mam, transcoding, QA, archiving, storage, edit, playout
– ISV partners able to provide file ingestion/distribution options• FTP, HTTP, SFTP, CIFS, Samba, etc.

FileCatalyst integration with eMAM
• eMAM integrates with FileCatalyst Development Tools (Java Applets, Remote Server Management API, and Java Script API) for a seamless integration
• eMAM has a Windows and Mac desktop eMAM Feeder application for ingest from any workstation worldwide into the eMAM Online library with a FileCatalyst option.
• eMAM has Delivery and Download options from eMAM web interface for worldwide delivery of native/high definition to any location with a FileCatalyst option.

FileCatalyst Direct Server
eMAM Typical Workflow
• Both ingest and delivery of large files, especially high definition content were time prohibitive, so customers needed to send hard drives for these file transfers.
• Use of FileCatalyst now made it feasible to directly use the eMAM toolset for the entire workflow.
