General Assembly opened its doors amidst two historic Hollywood union strikes. They needed to find a solution that reliably and efficiently archived their data to LTO tape drives, and keep their costs low.

Listen to how Atempo Miria solved General Assembly's immediate data management challenges and set them up for future growth--reliably, securely, and cost-effectively.

Hosted by John Diel, Sales Director of Atempo Americas with guests Tanner Alvarez, Co-Founder of the groundbreaking documentary studio General Assembly, and longtime Atempo partner and engineer, Kevin Frand, Sr Solutions Architect at Alt Systems.

"It's clear to see that the studios are going to expect, and I think this is the key word for 2024, efficiency. We are trying to show how much efficiency we can build and how much value we can provide. We saw the benefit with Miria almost immediately with a reduction in the manual hours needed to maintain our data archival and data retention policies and procedures. This means more efficiency, and money back to our customers."

-Tanner Alvarez, Co-Founder and Head of Post-Production, General Assembly

"As General Assembly grows, they may want to integrate emerging new technologies. Miria offers the ability to start small, and it can scale as large as they want it to grow. Miria doesn't care where the data is coming from or going to, as long as the Miria server can see the file system, they can access the data. For example, if they open up a second facility across town or across country, Myria could copy the data to file systems in remote locations, as well as their local location, to the cloud, or even a tape library. There's no limitation on how large."
