Creative Tech UK: Signiant Demonstrates On Site, Cloud Based Storage

Signiant will demonstrate new capabilities that expand the value of its products within the media industry at the 2018 HPA Creative Tech UK.

Signiant has cloud-native design — offering  SaaS platform that provides fast, secure global access to high-value media assets stored in on-premises storage or cloud-based storage.

Hosted as a one-day event on June 27 at the Ham Yard Hotel, Soho, London, HPA Creative Tech UK will bring together the UK media tech community for a symposium focusing on the intersection of leading-edge technology and the frontiers of creativity. The knowledge exchange at HPA Creative Tech UK aims to challenge assumptions and inspire ambitious new projects and collaborations within the ever-changing world of content creation and distribution.

In the Innovation Zone, Signiant will demonstrate technology enhancements to its SaaS platform that allows professional media assets stored on the platform to be played over long distance networks at higher bit rates than achievable with current streaming approaches. The demonstration leverages transfer acceleration technology and cloud-native design to ensure a highly responsive end user experience without additional customer-deployed hardware or software.

“When we first previewed this technology at the HPA Tech Retreat back in February the feedback was fantastic and the industry was able to really see how these innovations have the potential to help users make better and faster decision when transferring media,” says Ian Hamilton, CTO, Signiant. “We’re looking forward to showcasing this technology to a UK audience and highlighting how valuable time and resources can be saved because of it.”

Signiant CTO Ian Hamilton will be on-site at HPA Creative Tech UK to provide a preview of these new innovations, as well as to discuss the breadth of technology and capabilities across Signiant’s entire product line.
