Proact delivers reliable media file storage system to Digita
Proact, the leading independent data centre integrator and cloud services provider in Europe, is providing Digita with a storage system dedicated to handling media files. Digita provides TV and radio services along with Internet services based on an extensive network infrastructure.
Digita is responsible for enabling reliable flow of information throughout Finland by providing a network infrastructure for TV and radio broadcasts. Simultaneously, the company also provides wireless data transfer services, builds and maintains radio and TV networks and leases out equipment and broadcasting capacity.
The investment was, among other factors, based on the evolution of the media industry. "We provide services to media companies and mobile and broadband operators, which means that we handle a vast number of media files. We were hoping that the new storage system would, among other things, provide more efficient solutions for handling large files," says Digita's IT Platform Manager, Jussi Haapiainen.
The network infrastructure services Digita provides to its clients require high-performance solutions. Therefore, the company's IT systems must be reliable. "Digita requires systems with high level of availability due to the fact that they provide continuous services with critical importance to their clients. In other words, the infrastructure must always be available," indicates Proact's Account Manager, Marko Peltola.
The project includes a new storage infrastructure, deployment and Proact Premium Support so that Digita will be able to meet future needs of their business operations in a quicker, more flexible and more efficient way. The objective is to create a long term solution for their storage system architecture, which can be expanded and extended as necessary. This way, the architecture will not stand in the way of Digita's growth.
