Facilis Technology was founded in 2003 to bring advanced shared storage to television and film post production at a reasonable price. Our company is staffed by post production industry veterans in product development, broadcast facility engineering and creative video editing. The TerraBlock product is at the centre of content creation workflow in over a thousand facilities worldwide.

With the revolutionary Facilis Shared File System, collaborative Multi-user Write access is combined with our virtual volume architecture for unique project and media sharing capabilities with Avid and Apple editing products. Up to 4K DPX real-time playback can be achieved in a single 5u enclosure and up to 100 users can attach to the shared file system volumes over fibre channel and Ethernet with no per-seat license or 3rd part software costs.

TerraBlock is the only solution on the market to offer dynamically switchable sharing methods, allowing for any virtual volume to be changed from Multi-user Write (file level sharing) to Single-user Write (volume level sharing) at any time in the production, without reformatting or downtime. This exposes the best attributes of the SAN – Extreme bandwidth in Single-user Write and Extreme scalability and collaboration in Multi-user Write. TerraBlock – Share the Performance!
