Signiant has announced Media Engine, a modern media management service built into\u00a0The\u00a0Signiant\u00a0Platform. Media Engine allows\u00a0Signiant\u2019s SaaS customers to easily search, preview and take action on media assets across all their\u00a0Signiant-connected storage, from anywhere in the world. Customers can perform federated searches across multiple content repositories, both on-premises and in the cloud. Results are immediately actionable via the powerful services available on the platform anchored by\u00a0Signiant\u2019s best-in-class fast file transfer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Media Engine is immediately available to select\u00a0Signiant\u00a0customers. General availability is currently scheduled for July 2022.<\/p>\n

As a cloud-native SaaS offering, Media Engine is scalable, highly available, and simple to deploy and manage. Media Engine will be included with every\u00a0Signiant\u00a0SaaS subscription to extend the value of its market-leading products\u00a0\u23af\u00a0Media Shuttle,\u00a0Jet, and\u00a0Flight Deck\u00a0\u23af\u00a0well beyond file transfer. This expansion of the core\u00a0Signiant\u00a0platform provides additional tools to help media companies create workflow efficiencies and streamline operations.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur customers need to easily access their widely distributed content and Media Engine makes that functionality available to any-size business,\u201d comments Rick Clarkson, Signiant\u2019s Chief Product Officer.<\/strong> \u201cMedia Engine is a nimble, lightweight service built on the Signiant Platform, which is already widely deployed across the media supply chain thanks to its foundation of fast file transfer. The platform\u2019s unique architecture enables us to bring a variety of powerful new services to market for our SaaS customers with a very disruptive approach \u2014 Media Engine is the first of those services.\u201d<\/p>\n

Media Engine lets users search by keyword and phrase, file type and more to easily find assets across distributed storage. Users can preview any media format and immediately download or send it using Media Shuttle, the\u00a0Signiant\u00a0SaaS product designed for person-initiated transfers.<\/p>\n

Within the intuitive Media Engine interface, users will also be able to mark in and out points to select a specific portion of a video asset\u00a0\u23af\u00a0and then move only the clip of interest, commonly known as Partial File Restore. In addition, Media Engine’s proxy and metadata framework will make it easy for users to bring the power of cloud AI services to media operations. Today\u2019s announcement is only the beginning.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was just over a year ago that\u00a0Signiant\u00a0acquired Lesspain to help enhance the capabilities of the\u00a0Signiant\u00a0Platform,\u201d says Margaret Craig, Chief Executive Officer of\u00a0Signiant. \u201cMedia Engine is the result of many months of hard work by our internal development team and our new Lesspain colleagues. We think the results will delight the millions of media professionals who use our software in their everyday work, and our plan is to continue to release other platform services in the future that further address our customers’ pain points.\u201d<\/p>\n
