Facilis recently started shipping its new Hub Shared Storage System.

Built as an entirely new platform, Hub is an evolution of the Facilis Shared File System, with block-level virtualisation and multi-connectivity performance required for demanding media production workflows. It is also showing a preview of version 8.0 Hub software management.

Dan Muchmore, sales and marketing director, Tyrell, said: “The newest Hub Server boasts incredible performance that, when compared to other systems of a similar performance, enters at an incredible price point.”

The US and German facility, Story House Productions, has updated to Hub.

Tommy Sassenberg, technical director, Story House Productions, said: “The integration of the new system into our edit facility has been seamless and very easy. The new architecture offers not only a significant increase in speed, but we’re also seeing much improved stability and reliability.”

Planned to ship late this year, version 8 will include new methods of data protection including software defined multi-disk parity, hybrid performance management, advanced volume spanning capabilities and portable drive groups.
