TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR META DATA

ULTIMATE EFS MDC

Your Partner for HA Storage Management

The Ultimate Series Metadata Controller (MDC) from EditShare sets the standard for high-performance storage management, providing the essential traffic control required for demanding media workflows. As the backbone of your content creation, storage, and distribution system, the Ultimate MDC ensures the smooth handling of large-scale data operations with unrivaled reliability and efficiency.

Designed for High Availability Configuration

Reliability is at the core of the Ultimate MDC. It can be deployed in pairs to eliminate any single points of failure. Even in the event of hardware or network issues, your storage system remains operational, ensuring continuous, uninterrupted media workflow, making it ideal for mission-critical media environments.

Superior Power and Connectivity

With a powerful multi-core Xeon CPU and up to 512GB of DDR5 RAM, the Ultimate MDC handles large-scale media operations with ease. The default configuration supports 100 million file system objects per cluster, and additional RAM can be added to manage even more, ensuring scalability for your growing data needs.  Ultra-fast networking is crucial for modern media workflows, and the Ultimate MDC delivers. With dual-port 10G-BaseT RJ45 connections, it offers rapid data transfers and low-latency access, keeping your creative processes running efficiently, even in high-demand environments.

Robust Metadata Management

Metadata reliability is paramount, and the Ultimate MDC rises to the challenge. It utilizes two mirrored, hot-swappable SSDs for system configuration and metadata management, backed by hardware RAID 1 failover. This setup ensures your data is protected and workflows remain uninterrupted.

EFS Auditing, Storing Your Assets Securely

Equipped with a robust real-time audit layer that aligns with leading security requirements, the system securely logs a comprehensive digital footprint of all user activities within a project, providing facilities with up to a year’s worth of detailed audit data. This continuous tracking ensures every access, change, or interaction is recorded, giving full transparency into content handling. With hardware-backed RAID 1 drives, the audit data is protected from hardware failures, ensuring it remains intact and accessible. This powerful combination brings invaluable peace of mind to facilities managing valuable or sensitive content, enabling secure oversight and compliance with industry standards while protecting against unauthorized access or accidental modifications.

Integration Across the Ultimate Series

The Ultimate Series MDC is fully compatible with all Ultimate EFS storage nodes, including the EFS 210, 310, 410, and 60NL. Designed for Ultimate clustered platforms, the MDC excels in handling complex media workflows, providing robust metadata management across all nodes.
