Through this collaboration, customers will have access to the same infrastructure Google uses for its search engine, YouTube, and Gmail. The Avere FXT Edge filers enables customers to deploy and scale compute in Google Compute Engine using both on-premises and/or Google Cloud Storage resources. Avere claims that it is the only solution that allows companies to connect the dots between cloud computing and on-premises storage. Demanding apps can be ran in the cloud, data can be stored anywhere, and performance isn’t negatively affected.
At the 2015 National Association of Broadcasters in Las Vegas (April 13-16), Avere will be demonstrating how its FXT Edge filer solutions works in conjunction with Google Cloud Platform for media and entertainment application workflows. The demonstration will focus on workflows such as rendering, transcoding and for the storage of large media archives.
