SMARTENING PANELS The latest offering from Riedel is its RSP-1216HL SmartPanel, an all-new 1RU model in the company’s 1200 series of intercom and control panels for real-time video, audio, data and communications networks, and a more compact version of the app-based, RSP-1232HL SmartPanel user interface. “We took a quantum leap forward in workflow flexibility, power and connectivity when we first introduced the RSP-1232HL SmartPanel at the 2018 NAB Show,” says Riedel product manager, Benjamin Lampert. “Customers were blown away by its multiple, full-colour, multitouch displays, intuitive operation and ability to leverage apps for multifunctionality. “In the meantime, our customers have requested a 1RU version — and now it’s here. With the RSP-1216HL, we managed to concentrate all the power of the RSP- 1232HL in an even more compact form, without sacrificing any functionality or user-friendliness.” The fully IP-centric RSP-1216HL features a full-colour, high-resolution touchscreen, as well as a hybrid-lever key design that combines lever- and rotary-style key styles.
FLYING INTO THE OBJECTMATRIX Back in December, storage solutions provider Object Matrix and Blackbird plc, the developers behind cloud video editing platform Blackbird, announced a new partnership. “Our goal of making Blackbird fully interoperable with other best-of-breed solutions continues at pace,” commented Blackbird CEO, Ian McDonough. “By pairing our solution with MatrixStore, we can ensure our customers stay in control of their entire archive.” The main motivation for the move is to integrate Object Matrix’s on-premises and cloud storage platform, MatrixStore, with Blackbird’s platform. When using Blackbird’s browser editing system, teams can create clips, highlights and longer-form content. With the integration with MatrixStore, organisations will be able to keep content secure. Another key benefit of the partnership is that Blackbird also enables media assets to be published in outputs to multiple digital channels, including social, OTT and web, as well as passed back to MatrixStore. MatrixStore is one of the leading media-focused, object storage softwares that modernises video workflows and provides instant access to media assets from anywhere. It also provides high-level digital content governance and can be deployed on-prem. OBJECTMATRIX / BLACKBIRD blackbird.video
STORAGE SOLUTIONS Spectra Logic has revealed the newest version of its StorCycle storage lifecycle management software. StorCycle 3.3 comes with a selection of new features, including an open RESTful API that allows users to integrate it with a larger set of workflows, alongside enhancements that advance the software’s ability to migrate data to disk, tape and cloud storage. Created for companies that need protection and access to data that isn’t active, but still important to keep, StorCycle scans primary storage for inactive files and puts them to a lower-cost level of storage – including any combination of cloud storage, object storage disk, network-attached storage and object storage tape. Usable with Linux and Windows, StorCycle migrates data without changing original formats, allowing users easy access to all data. This includes data moved to higher latency storage mediums, such as cloud ‘cold’ tiers and tape. StorCycle 3.3 also extends cloud support to Microsoft Azure, including both the standard (hot/cool) and archive tiers. spectralogic.com SPECTRA LOGIC
