ATTO Technology (www.attotech.com) and Avid (www.avid.com) have teamed up to create a new storage solution to improve real-time collaboration.

The ATTO solution, certified by Avid, uses ATTO’s Thunderbolt-enabled devices for integration of desktops and workstations with Ethernet-connected shared storage systems, including Avid’s 7500, 5500, 2500 and 1000 products, all guaranteed to be compatible. It features ATTO’s Advanced Data Streaming to maximize data flow for reliable transfers.

The ATTO solution supports a range of editing software, making it compatible with a variety of tools. This allows multiple contributors to collaborate simultaneously on a project without having to purchase new software.

ATTO and Avid have an over 20-year history of creating collaborative solutions. Avid ISIS shared storage backed by ATTO Thunderbolt enabled 10GbE Desklink devices allows users to work at higher resolutions and utilize more streams of SD, HD and 4K video. Avid’s ISIS family of shared storage systems give creative teams real-time editorial collaboration with performance that accelerates media workflows. The Avid file management system is designed to enhance collaboration and maximizes production efficiency by enabling editors to work with a host of tools from Apple, Avid, Adobe, and Grass Valley.
