vjoon launches agile data management tool Storage Engine

Agile, responsive data management is critical wherever information is archived, be it in a company-owned network or in the cloud. vjoon has launched its Storage Engine which aims to help IT teams make the most of agile data management.

Media companies, agencies and marketers generate much of the world’s growing data volume. These enterprises need instant access to a mounting pile of content and publishing data, as well as speedy recovery in the event of an emergency.

In multichannel publishing and content marketing, the data load grows heavier with every added output channel. Rising demand for high-resolution images and videos further exacerbates the situation. To protect the integrity of this information, says vjoon, companies need a management tool that can handle vast amounts of data and restore the database promptly in the event of a failure.

vjoon Storage Engine streamlines and simplifies the storage and management of vjoon K4's publishing data and speeds up recovery, says the company.

According to vjoon, when in-sourcing IT, infrastructure can be run by company staff or provided as a managed service. Local networks are fast and provide the means to isolate mission-critical data. Computing performance and storage space are scalable, and can be upped at the touch of a button to keep pace with the company’s growth. With S3, Amazon offers a special type of object storage in the cloud that lets customers store and retrieve any amount of data, anywhere in the world.

Companies that opt for vjoon K4 and vjoon Storage Engine are free to run their publishing workflows and maintain all data on their in-house IT infrastructure. They may also use Amazon’s highly scalable, cloud-based object storage for vjoon Storage Engine, or they can port the whole package, vjoon K4 and vjoon Storage Engine, to the cloud. This freedom of choice puts media companies, agencies and marketers back in the driver’s seat when it comes to their IT strategies.

vjoon GmbH CEO Andreas Schrader says: “vjoon Storage Engine breaks new ground. With this innovative solution, we are offering an efficient means of handling the steadily growing quantity of data generated when content is produced”. “This new storage engine helps companies practice agile data management in the cloud and on their servers.”
