Accelerated ingest now available as a pay-as-you-go offering on AWS Marketplace

LEXINGTON, MA – 26 January 2017 – Signiant Inc, a market leader in intelligent file movement software, today announced the availability of Signiant Flight on AWS Marketplace, an online store that streamlines the purchase process for customers looking to easily find, buy and start using SaaS applications. Amazon Web Services (AWS) customers can now upload large files quickly to Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) using Signiant Flight — and take advantage of direct billing to their AWS account.

“Signiant Flight is a leading offering for file acceleration, which many AWS customers depend on when moving large files to the cloud”, said Barry Russell, GM, Global Business Development, AWS Marketplace and Catalog Services, Amazon Web Services, Inc. “Media companies and other data-intensive businesses want cloud-native SaaS solutions like Signiant Flight, and its availability in AWS Marketplace adds another element of convenience. With support for SaaS Subscriptions in AWS Marketplace, Signiant Flight now provides customers with a simple procurement and AWS billing option for a product that gives them an easy way to start moving big data into the cloud.”

The updated Signiant Flight offering takes advantage of the new AWS Marketplace SaaS Subscription functionality, allowing customers to use Flight on a pay-as-you-go basis. “Signiant Flight is our preferred option for uploading critical assets that our customers depend on to Amazon S3. Now, it is fully integrated with AWS Marketplace and we can pay for it on our AWS bill, we can optimize our business operations,” said Manuel Negre, Technical Account Manager at Novis Corp.

“The cloud is transforming how companies in media & entertainment and a variety of other industries are doing business– and they need an easier, faster and more reliable way to move big data into and out of cloud environments,” said Cory Bialowas, SVP of Product Management at Signiant. “These companies need immediate access to data and often don’t have the resources or expertise to configure and manage a cloud infrastructure. Signiant Flight helps solves these problems, ensuring enterprises have the scalability, flexibility, security and control they need, and today’s integration with AWS Marketplace makes purchasing Signiant Flight easier than ever.”
