# EditShare for Post-Production

# Keep Every Edit Moving: No Bottlenecks, No Downtime

Missed deadlines cost money. EditShare gives post teams the performance, intelligence, collaboration, and redundancy they need to deliver on time, every time, from dailies through to final delivery.

### The Challenge in Post

High-end post pushes storage harder than almost any other industry. Teams are under pressure to deliver fast, handle massive files, and collaborate across locations — all without a single failure.

**Creative collaboration:** Editors, colorists, and producers all need simultaneous, high-speed access

**Distributed teams:** Multi-site and remote workflows with no tolerance for lag or sync issues

**Version control:** Complex metadata consistency and project sharing across departments

**Security and uptime:** Zero room for downtime, one failure can derail delivery

Traditional IT storage wasn’t built for this. **EditShare is.**

### Built for Post Workflows

Collaboration & Workflow Intelligence keep every department in sync.

**FLOW** indexes, searches, and manages media with powerful metadata tools

Automate ingest, proxy creation, and site-to-site sync with **FLOW Automation**

Native integration with **Adobe Premiere Pro**, **Avid Media Composer**, and **DaVinci Resolve** enables shared bins, projects, and timelines

Result: no duplicate media, no overwrites, no waiting.

### How EditShare Helps

Connecting people, projects, and media in one continuous workflow. EditShare automates the technical steps so your editors, colorists, and producers can stay focused on the cut.

#### Performance & Scalability

EditShare delivers the sustained bandwidth post demands, with flexibility to grow.

- Ultimate EFS Nodes handle multi-stream 4K/8K, VFX, and HDR finishing
- Scale node by node with automatic data rebalancing, no downtime, no disruption
- Mix SSD and HDD in hybrid or nearline tiers to balance speed and cost

_Your performance scales as your facility does._

#### Redundancy & Resilience

Post can’t afford downtime. EditShare’s EFS architecture protects your media at every level.

- Each EFS node includes redundant drive protection
- XOR parity across multi-node clusters protects against total node loss
- Background rebuilds keep projects running during recovery

_If a drive or even a node fails, editors keep working, no interruptions._

#### Collaboration & Workflow Intelligence

FLOW gives editors, producers, and VFX teams a single view of media, projects, and metadata.

- Automate ingest, proxy generation, and transfers with FLOW Automation
- Send to Site synchronizes media and metadata between facilities or remote teams
- Native integration with Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid Media Composer, and DaVinci Resolve for real project and bin sharing
- FLOW AI adds auto-tagging, transcription, and scene recognition to speed up search and review

Empower your teams to focus on creativity, not file management.

#### Security & Archive

Protect client content and preserve your creative history.

- Folder-level permissions and Active Directory/SSO integration
- MPAA/TPN-aligned audit logging for full visibility
- EFS nearline and ARK archive tiers for cost-effective storage and instant retrieval

_Stay compliant, stay organized, and never lose a project again._

### The Core Principles Behind a Strong Post Workflow

|     |
| --- |
| **Confidence in your pipeline**<br> A stable, fault-tolerant storage layer removes the risk of interruptions during deadline-heavy work. EFS clusters protect against drive and node failure so teams stay focused on delivery, not firefighting. |
| **Control over your entire catalog**<br> FLOW provides organised, searchable access to years of projects and raw media. It reduces the time teams spend digging for assets or rebuilding lost work because everything is indexed, tracked and easy to retrieve. |
| **A workflow that adapts as you grow**<br> Whether you add more editors, bring in higher-resolution formats or open a second site, EditShare expands without re-architecting. Performance and capacity scale predictably with your operation. |
| **Choice in how and where you work**<br> With cloud and on-prem options, plus tools that move media intelligently between them, you’re not locked into one model. You can run fully local, fully cloud, or a mix that evolves with your business. |
