Offline Media Import/Export for Media Asset Management
 

Offline Media Import / Export

Onison offers a convenient service that allows you to load large amounts of data into ImageDirector Media Asset Management or to download parts of or an entire archive. This service is particularly helpful when Internet connections are too slow or too busy to take on peak loads.
 
Large data transfers have always been problematic for organizations, and with the explosive growth of data, the problems are only getting bigger.  While typical Internet connections today allow for download speeds in excess of 10 Mbps (megabits per second) to 100 Mbps, upload speeds are usually limited to 1 - 20 Mbps. At that rate, a data upload of only 10 GB will take hours or even a day. Imagine a terabyte (TB). It will take up to a quarter of a year. Onison has offered such services for over 20 years.
