Search. Edit. Transform.

Search fragmented media.

Co-ordinate editing.

Transform production.

mediaSaaS Enterprise Platform

Modern media operations span cloud, production systems, archives and legacy environments, creating fragmented workflows, disconnected information and operational silos.

Built on the mediaSaaS Platform, Enterprise Solutions enable organisations to search fragmented media and co-ordinate editing across existing environments. They establish the foundation to modernise production without replacing infrastructure or migrating media.

Improve efficiency, visibility and collaboration across the enterprise.

Deploy once. Expand continuously.

mediaSaaS’ Platform delivers enterprise capability without

infrastructure replacement or

media migration.

Deploy once. Expand continuously.

Most vendors replace infrastructure. mediaSaaS maintains it and adds value.

Unify workflows without migration or infrastructure replacement.

Start with the functionality you need today, then expand across existing production environments as your operational requirements evolve. New functionality can be introduced incrementally without disrupting existing workflows, infrastructure or operations.

Once deployed, evolve without disruption.


Contextual Metadata™

Contextual Metadata™ is the foundation of mediaSaaS Enterprise Solutions. Rather than treating metadata as isolated tags, mediaSaaS captures the relationships between content, workflows, operational objects, people and events. This enables organisations to search, discover and operate across distributed media environments with greater understanding and efficiency.

mediaSaaS delivers enterprise search, editing and interchange capabilities across hybrid media environments.

Why mediaSaaS?

Modern media organisations operate increasingly complex infrastructure across cloud platforms, on-prem systems, archives and multiple production environments.

This complexity is the result of years of investment in specialist tools for production, editing, storage and distribution — resulting in highly capable but deeply fragmented ecosystems.

The industry approach: replace and consolidate

Traditional transformation programmes attempt to solve this fragmentation by replacing existing systems with unified platforms or migrating content into new environments.

While this approach can work in isolated cases, it often introduces significant cost, operational disruption and risk — particularly in large-scale broadcast environments.

In practice, media infrastructure is now too distributed and too embedded in day-to-day operations to be realistically replaced.

A different approach: connect and extend

mediaSaaS takes a fundamentally different approach.

Instead of replacing existing systems, the platform connects them into a federated operational environment where metadata, workflows and assets can operate across cloud, on-prem and archive systems.

This enables organisations to:

  • preserve existing infrastructure investments
  • reduce migration and transformation risk
  • unify operations across multiple vendors and platforms
  • evolve incrementally rather than through wholesale replacement

The result

A connected media infrastructure that behaves as one operational system — without requiring replacement of the systems already in place.

Enterprise Federated Search

“We need to introduce new technology but can’t afford the time, cost or pain to migrate decades of media. Help!”
That’s why we created Enterprise Search.

Enterprise Search

Find what you know. Discover what you don’t.

Whether you’re adding new production platforms or managing existing ones, Enterprise Search gives you immediate visibility across your entire media estate. Without media migration.


Search.

Search any object across your media estate.

  • Across cloud, on-prem and archive.
  • Without media migration.

Why Enterprise Search?

Traditional search helps you find information.

Enterprise Search helps you build understanding.

  • Search your entire media estate from one place.
  • Find content wherever it resides.
  • Discover relationships you didn’t know existed.
  • Unlock the value of existing content & metadata.

 

Build understanding by adding context…

  • Connect metadata across production systems.
  • Build richer, deeper context across your organisation.
  • Reveal relationships between content, projects and workflows.
  • Coordinate information across distributed environments.
  • Enrich content with mediaSaaS Real Intelligence™, speech-to-text and OCR.

…and Discover more…

  • Discover related assets and production context.
  • Discover opportunities for reuse.
  • Turn information into operational knowledge.

…to Repurpose.

  • Extend the value of every asset from different angles.
  • Rediscover media, edit projects, reuse production knowledge.

Enterprise Federated Search DNY

Find what you know. Discover what you don’t know

Enterprise Federated Search provides a unified way to locate, analyse and manage media assets and metadata across distributed infrastructure.

It enables teams to search across storage systems, archives and production systems without relocating media. Metadata from multiple systems is consolidated and normalised to provide consistent search results, content context and operational visibility across the organisation.

Teams can now locate and reuse content in seconds instead of hours, while unlocking the value of previously inaccessible archives

  • Federated search, discovery & management across distributed storage domains
  • Policy-based retention, archive, and tier movement automation
  • Cross-system metadata translation and orchestration
  • AI-driven enrichment with mediaSaaS Real intelligenceTM, (speech-to-text, OCR etc)

This architecture allows organisations to integrate legacy and modern production systems whilst benefiting from a consistent normalised operational view of assets and projects.

Search, Manage & Orchestrate media assets

  • Video, audio, graphics, edit projects, subtitles, documents etc
  • Live streams, hybrid stores, production storage and archives
  • Cloud regions, availability zones and on-prem infrastructure
  • Legacy broadcast systems and modern cloud production systems

Live & Fast-Turnaround Workflows

  • Live record and ingest pipelines integrate with modern production systems including environments such as Grass Valley AMPP and Avid
