Video Communication Systems incorporates Aspera

The Argentine Video Communication Systems has just incorporated Aspera solutions into its portfolio that offers all types of solutions for media that demand real-time collaboration, large data exchange, and content distribution on a global scale.

The Argentine Video Communication Systems (SVC) has just incorporated Aspera solutions into its portfolio. Aspera is a reference company in the transfer of large files through existing network infrastructure, to any part of the world. With advanced technologies for high-speed file transfer, Aspera presents solutions to media that demand real-time collaboration, large data exchange, and content distribution on a global scale.

To fully realize the promises of file-based workflows in terms of productivity, efficiency and capacity, media companies are seeking to leverage new types of infrastructure: file cloud technology, mobile systems, open platform orchestration, global person-to-person contacts and project-based collaboration, and media content management and distribution at unlimited scale.

Aspera is at the crossroads of these requirements, helping to strengthen cloud, mobile and premise-based workflows, providing innovative solutions for high-speed file transfer and file-based collaboration, and pioneering the next generation of high-speed data synchronization and multicast distribution. All Aspera solutions are software and install on any traditional operating system, including Windows, Linux, Mac and others. All products are powered by Fasp technology, patented and proven as the next generation transport for moving file-based data of unlimited scale, over IP networks over any distance, with maximum speed, predictability and security.

Among its most important products, the Server Software family stands out, which includes Aspera Enterprise Server (server for universal file transfer that replaces FTP, with Client applications for desktop), Aspera Connect Server (server for universal file transfer that replaces FTP, with Client applications with web interface from any web-browser through the Aspera Connect “high-performance transfer browser plug-in) and Aspera Faspex Server (global distribution and delivery of “person-to-person” files in email format and links).

Completing the product line, Aspera Console (centralized management, monitoring and control of file transfers of the entire network, including management of remote nodes via web interface from any web-browser), Aspera Sync (multidirectional file synchronization on remote and local servers, with maximum speed and scalability. Replaces RSYNC, and allows achieving enormous efficiencies in the detection of changes in files and in their synchronization), Aspera Orchestrator also stands out. (automation of file-based worklows and 'orchestrated' coordination of actions from other "3rd party" products, in combination with file transfer using Aspera Fasp) and Aspera on-demand for AWS (high-performance file transfer service for the cloud, offered within Amazon Web Services, for file ingestion and distribution).

In 2007, Aspera acquired Avid's DigiDelivery solution. Aspera currently has a discounted replacement program, as DigiDelivery has been discontinued. Instead, Aspera Faspex replaces DigiDelivery, including a host of additional benefits.

In 2009 Aspera also announced the purchase of the Castify line from the company Omneon, enabling the extensive collaboration of both companies in the manufacture of CDN solutions. Both Omneon and Avid are also represented by SVC.
