Architected for Flexibility

Flexibility is key to your ability to manage digital media assets. Grass Valley Group's Profile Network Archive architecture lets you configure your archive system with the optimal amount of capacity and performance. At the heart of Network Archive is an off-the-shelf Intel^® Pentium™ server running the Sun^® Solaris™ operating system. This server is the gateway to connecting multiple Profile video servers to your tape library. It has the appropriate Fibre Channel and SCSI connections to provide a high-speed link between the network of video servers and the library system. In most configurations, each server supports two tape drives. For larger scale configurations, multiple servers can be used to provide as much bandwidth as needed to access multiple tape drives installed in the library.
