Cinegy is to unveil its new Professional Service at the IBC Show in Amsterdam, from 14-18 September. The company will also showcase its channel-in-the-cloud solution, and an end-to-end 8K workflow using the complete set of its entire suite of broadcast software products.
   

Cinegy Head of Product Management Lewis Kirkaldie said: "I anticipate IBC2018 being the start of a consolidation cycle. A huge amount of change has taken place in the industry over the last couple of years and I believe it's time to pause, take a breath, and determine how best to solidify disrupters like 4K, HDR, and IP and devise plans to get them, if not into the mainstream, then into reliable large-scale deployments."

One highly targeted offering that Cinegy will showcase at IBC2018 is the introduction of Cinegy Platform One with XenData, a 2RU integrated MAM and storage server highly optimised for video applications with a high-end range of preinstalled Cinegy software that is ready for configuration.

"For many organisations, the sheer volume of video files creates considerable challenges associated with storing, organising, finding and reusing their media assets," added Mr Kirkaldie. "The conventional approach is to install shared disk storage, a Media Asset Management (MAM) server, and an archive server, all of which brings their own challenges when it comes to getting these components to work harmoniously. Cinegy Platform One integrates all these of elements on a single, powerful server."

Cinegy Managing Director Daniella Weigner said: "The Cinegy software and, now, hardware products being showcased at IBC2018 are extremely functional and, as ever, highly affordable. We look forward to demonstrating how customers worldwide can benefit from the ideas and experience that infuse our entire product range."
