Signiant is the market leader in intelligent file movement software for media and entertainment industries. We are members of multiple media and entertainment associations, hold several technology patents focused on file transport, and have been instrumental in recent digital media initiatives. Signiant has been dedicated to revolutionizing file transport and optimized network infrastructure for a long time, but we make sure that we stay cutting edge with file transfer solutions.
In April of 2012, Signiant introduced Media Shuttle, the industry’s first secure, subscription-based enterprise file sharing solution. Media Shuttle manages all file movement logistics with our cloud software. You can store the files in whatever location that you choose — either on-premise or in the cloud, and you’ll never be locked into a single online storage provider. Media Shuttle offers the easiest application interface, the fastest transfer speeds, and the most reliable technology. There are also no file size limits with Media Shuttle, so unlike other programs with a file size cap, you can send extremely large files.
We like to keep track of what people are doing with Media Shuttle. For example, in Venezuela, Cisneros Media implemented Media Shuttle and saved time and labor moving hundreds of GB for multiple television series. Venture 3D, a production company based in LA, used Media Shuttle to move large files for the Metallica movie. Read more about Media Shuttle and the way it’s helping businesses grow and collaborate around the world in the following articles, or try it out for yourself.
Customers are always forefront on our minds, but 2020 raised that to new heights. From conversations throughout the M&E landscape, along with a look at the metrics on our SaaS platform, we are proud of the role Signiant’s software played in helping our customers adapt quickly.
As the newest addition to our growing list of storage options, we’re happy to introduce S3 compatible on-prem object storage support for Media Shuttle.

Under normal circumstances, political events such as nominating conventions are produced much in the same way as a major sporting event. This year, we will see smaller teams on-site and many working remotely to maintain safety.
As major innovations like 5G promise to reshape the media landscape in ways both small and large, Signiant strives to provide tools that help businesses navigate each new curve as it appears.
Signiant helps M&E companies leverage machine learning today both directly and indirectly, directly by leveraging machine learning in our patent-pending intelligent transport architecture. That architecture looks at a variety of inputs from both current and historical network conditions to determine the best possible path to move a particular data set over a network under the current conditions.
The Signiant platform (including Manager+Agents versions 14.1 and higher) now supports on-prem file storage, S3 Compatible on-prem object storage, and cloud object storage from AWS, Azure and now Google Cloud Platform.
Chesapeake Systems and Signiant are delighted to announce that Chesapeake has become an official Signiant reseller. Having worked as a Signiant SI partner for many years, this deepening of the relationship between the two is an obvious next step given Signiant’s proven capabilities and partnership with key MAM technology partners of Chesapeake Systems and of StorExcel, the company which Chesapeake Systems acquired in April.
Any industry as vast as M&E is relatively unpredictable, and the surrounding unpredictable world only makes it more so. However with remote access, media businesses remain prepared for any disruption that may come their way —whether it’s coronavirus or (hopefully) something less severe.
Our unique hybrid approach allows for great flexibility so you can choose the storage that makes the most sense for each operation and you can mix and match as needed. Assets always remain 100% under your control.
The Signiant SDCX SaaS platform now addresses any use case within or between companies, across any hybrid cloud or multi-cloud environment: Jet handles system-to-system file movement, Media Shuttle is for person-initiated transfers, and Signiant Flight moves data to and from the cloud.
The high-growth trajectory of our SaaS business has continued in 2019, with Media & Entertainment customers deploying ever-larger footprints of our innovative solutions to power their mission-critical workflows.
