For media libraries with thousands of tapes
The machinery behind Archive Activation: what it is, what it can handle, where it runs and who we build it with. How it runs for your library is settled in the assessment.
- FlyPack
- A rental migration and AI indexing system in a rolling case. It comes to your facility, moves the library off videotape or LTO inside a fixed term, holds up to 1 PB on a single unit, and leaves when it is done.
- Amplify
- The AI indexing layer that makes every title searchable and carries its rights status as metadata. It integrates with media asset and playout systems, including DALET, DIVA, Adobe and Orange Logic.
- Meta8
- Sovereign storage for the migrated library. Sovereign means your content stays under your control, in your jurisdiction, on infrastructure you can walk up to. Any file is reachable in about 60 seconds.
Capacity
- 5,000 hours a month
- One 8 channel FlyPack migrates up to 5,000 videotape hours a month on premises, with AI indexing and metadata enrichment included.
- Up to 50 FlyPacks
- Units run in parallel, so a large library is a matter of scheduling, not years.
- Around the clock
- FlyPacks can run 24×7. Orchestration software tracks every step and every file.
What the process covers
- Migrate and index
- Programs come off tape or LTO and are indexed as they land.
- Separate the audio
- Audio is separated from picture so it can be replaced or localized for new markets.
- Align the rights
- Indexed titles are matched to your existing rights database, so every title carries a rights status.
- Format for any channel
- Content is reformatted for the channels you choose, with titles flagged where pan and scan is needed.
- Prepare for licensing
- Cleared titles are packaged with localized audio, ready to deliver.
- Support through placement
- We work alongside your team and counsel through the first licensing conversations.
How the engagement works
- Rented for a term
- You rent the FlyPack for a fixed term scoped in the assessment. No capital purchase.
- Installed and trained
- We install it at your facility and train your people to run it. We can bring tape machines if you need them.
- Run by your team
- Your own staff operate it, on your network, with Meta Martis support behind them.
Where it runs
- On premises
- At your facility, on your network.
- Private cloud
- Meta8 hosted for you, with no egress fees on your own content and replication to other data centers or other countries.
- Offline copy
- An air-gapped master that no network reaches, out of range of hackers and ransomware.
