Rich Media

Data storage for the creator economy

The PROMISE engineering and design team have established a reputation for reliability, performance and ease of use, creating systems used by media professionals worldwide - from major studio post production teams to independent creators.

Introducing the Pegasus R12

It might be difficult for some people to imagine now, but there was once a world without online public video hosting available to anyone and everyone for their entertainment, and to share their original creations with the entire world. Oh how the world of media has changed in such a short period of time.

The content creation revolution has massively changed the media environment across the globe, enabling a renaissance of sorts for creative people to express their artistic and whimsical selves to audiences small and large. PROMISE Technology has been along for this wild ride from the start. The Pegasus Series introduced the first-to-market Thunderbolt™ Storage RAID featuring the groundbreaking Thunderbolt connection platform back in 2010. By that time however, PROMISE had already, and for many years established the VTrak Series of specialized high-performance network RAID storage systems targeting the video broadcast and studio markets, becoming widely adopted in Europe, Asia and the US.

This legacy of performance, reliability and innovation has propelled PROMISE Technology to be well-regarded in the content creation community - both in large corporate media environments and the solo creator’s living room alike.

Unique innovations for Rich Media

logo of FileBoost Tech

FileBoost uses proprietary algorithms that enable extremely rapid data transfer from a shared NAS folder to clients connected via 10G or faster Ethernet AND rapid sharing between the DAS volume (on PegasusPro units) and shared NAS volume. This greatly reduces time expended waiting for large file transfers to be completed, thus improving workflow for collaborative efforts (such as video post production projects) that require frequent sharing of very large data files.

logo of TierBoost

TierBoost optimizes storage usage with high speed and large capacity, enhancing NAS performance through intelligent auto-tiering and user-defined file assignments. TierBoost is currently supported on the VTrak N1616. The primary benefits are data storage efficiency (defined in terms of cost per megabyte) and workflow efficiency from time saved from using higher speed data transfer for the most used and shared data.

logo of TierBoost

HybridBoost effectively balances the sometimes competing demands of remote access and cyber security with optimal storage utilization. It supports simplified syncing, backup/restore functions and archiving on local, remote or Cloud storage. Link easily to your account with any of the major Cloud service providers for Remote Sync, Backup/Restore, and Archive functions.

logo of NVMeBoost

NVMeBoost takes advantage of the much lower latency and higher throughput of NVMe SSDs, implemented using two different strategies: NVMe cache and NVMe Pool. An NVMe read or write cache greatly increases read/write performance while using conventional HDD for the RAID array. NVMe Pool creates an array made up entirely of NVMe SSDs for extremely high performance (though at considerably higher cost).

logo of GreenBoost

GreenBoost includes novel mechanical design of the entire chassis to optimize air flow and fans engineered for durability and cooling performance efficiency. The goal is maximum air flow and the most efficient heat transfer possible for the size of enclosure and number of hard disk drives. Testing by independent laboratories has confirmed the overall energy savings that result from this approach.
