Sohonet has joined the Media Innovation Cloud Alliance, the coalition is comprised of leading media technology companies, integrating across multiple clouds, to deliver an alternative to first-generation cloud stacks.

Services offered by the Alliance span the media lifecycle from content creation, to editing and transformation, to playback and delivery, through archiving and library management.

“Agility and budget are consistent concerns for our clients, who also have a growing need to utilise the cloud,” said Sohonet CEO Chuck Parker.

“The Alliance enables workflows that meet the core needs facing our clients: Raw camera backup and derivative workflows, multi-cloud management, media production orchestration, archive and storage. Equally important to our customers is the ability to deploy those workflows quickly and cost effectively, especially where egress fees tend to restrict workflow flexibility amongst multiple cloud service providers.” .
