LEXINGTON, MA – March 29, 2019 – Signiant today announced new capabilities and impressive adoption metrics for the innovative cloud-native SaaS platform that is driving the company’s growth. As a pioneer in Software Defined Content Exchange (SDCX) concepts, Signiant was the first company to productize and patent an architecture that combines advanced network optimization with an intelligent cloud-based control plane to connect the global media supply chain. This approach ensures that end users, workflows, and business processes are unencumbered by the complexities of storage type and location.
Media companies of all sizes now rely on the Signiant fabric to provide fast, seamless global access to their valuable media assets. Customers become part of the SDCX ecosystem by adopting one or more Signiant SaaS products, each of which addresses a different class of mission-critical file transfer use cases while populating the environment with SDCX-enabled storage locations. All major public cloud platforms are pre-provisioned by Signiant with cloud-native auto-scaling transfer infrastructure, and media companies can easily install SDCX endpoint software in their private clouds and storage locations. This increasingly inter-connected virtual network provides the industry with a unified, media-aware means of exchanging content within and between companies, underpinned by the fast, secure, reliable transport that Signiant has long provided.
Widely embraced as an integral part of the shift toward hybrid cloud and multi-cloud infrastructure, the Signiant SaaS platform continues to evolve and grow:
“It has been exciting to see the initial SDCX idea mature into a widely adopted inter-company fabric that delivers unique value to the industry,” said Rick Clarkson, Chief Strategy Officer at Signiant. “As we continue to extend the functionality of our SaaS platform beyond file transfer, demand for new features and adjacent capabilities is exploding. Customers are clearly embracing the potential of the SDCX approach and are adopting it as a foundational element in their next-generation technical infrastructure.”
At NAB 2019, Signiant will be demonstrating all of its SDCX SaaS products in Booth #SL10216:
The company will also be conducting executive briefings on extended SDCX functionality currently under development and capabilities envisioned for the future roadmap.
