High performance scalable storage for collaborative Post, Broadcast, DI and more.EditShare XStream, our flagship storage product, is all about high-performance and scalability.  Systems can start out as small as one Workflow Director with 16-drives. Then, as your needs grow, you can add up to 4 storage expansion units for a total of 80 drives. With today’s high-capacity disks, that means you can get over 320TB in a single XStream server.
Xstream Storage | store media assets without limits. Single systems grow to over 600 TB and support 100s of users.

Growing an XStream system is achieved via PCI-e expansion, which means each set of 16 drives gets powered by its own RAID controller, resulting in the fastest, lowest-latency storage. Thanks to EditShare ESA (Extreme Scalable Architecture), you can also put multiple XStream systems onto your network where they work together – along with your Energy, Metro and Field servers – as a single massive storage environment. So with XStream, you can scale both “up” and “out”.

EditShare Mbps speedometer-over-700A single 16-drive EditShare drive set can support over 700 MB/sec of throughput when used with high data rate codecs such as 2K DPX. * EditShare XStream can meet virtually any collaborative workflow challenge – even where large numbers of users require media sharing and edit-in-place capabilities with the highest resolution files.  Whether your facility is focused on news, sports, drama, documentary, reality TV, digital intermediate or education, XStream has the power and scalability you need.What’s more, EditShare XStream includes EditShare’s powerful Flow asset management and Ark backup and archiving software – turning your storage system into a complete end-to-end tapeless workflow solution.

Add multi-channel, multi-format SDI ingest and playout servers, worker nodes, tape libraries and more to increase your productivity and help keep you focused on the creative part of your business.

*Throughput is directly related to the data rate of the streams being read or written.  The highest throughput is achieved with the highest data rate streams. With lower data rate video, you get a high number of streams, but the total throughput you can get out of a set of drives will be lower than with high data-rate video.
