Sony Professional
announces revolutionary OPSIGATE content
management and delivery system
Comprehensive web-based system enables
digital content to be organised and
distributed more effectively than ever
before.
Basingstoke UK, Feb.
1, 2011 – Sony Professional today
announced the European launch of
OPSIGATE at Integrated Solution Europe
2011 show, a comprehensive web-based
content management and delivery system
that enables businesses to organise and
distribute various forms of digital
content from a single database.
Audio and visual
content, paper documents and PC data
files, all hold valuable information,
however, integrating them into a single
database and managing that effectively
has always been a complicated procedure,
requiring special skills and storage
space. The OPSIGATE solution has been
developed to simplify and optimise the
use of multi-media content, designed to
make database management and
distribution straightforward. It also
enables registered users to access, view
and stream over IP stored content
directly on their web browser from any
location.
The
business-to-business (B2B) industry has
never had a standard, effective method
to deliver internal and external
communications, such as training
information, seminar presentations,
video lessons and announcements.
Vertical sectors in particular,
including the corporate environment,
education and medical sectors, struggle
managing and sending large data files,
creating time and cost challenges to
their businesses. FCCN, the first
European customer of the OPSIGATE
system, said, “Our company communicates
to many domestic and overseas
universities but we’ve often struggled
to share video and other large documents
to them simply and easily, which has
resulted in cost implications for us. In
using the OPSIGATE system effectively,
we and our partners (universities and
other research laboratories) manage and
share our digital content from anywhere
simply using a standard web browser and
distribute as and when we want. With
OPSIGATE, we are also able to give
support to video classes from
universities.” FCCN is the Portuguese
National Research and Education Network
managers.
Akihisa Obara,
Business Head of OPSIGATE from Sony
Professional Europe, said, “Thanks to
the wide-spread use and technological
advancement of the Internet and web 2.0
applications, the use of and
distribution of content as a means of
communication and mash up with other
portals is becoming more and more
popular. In addition, Social Network
Service for B2B is not still established
solution yet. OPSIGATE meets this demand
by storing and delivering content in a
manageable and user-friendly way. Sony
Professional is paving the way for a new
age of communication and the OPSIGATE
solution revolutionises the way
information assets are handled.”
OPSIGATE works by
keeping the original file format of all
content unchanged and content metadata
can be used to aid search operations.
Plus, low-resolution proxy data is
automatically created at the time of
video-file registration, enabling quick
and easy content preview. The stored
content can be accessed and viewed via a
web browser based CE devices, making it
possible to share and view various
information without the need to install
additional client software. As a result,
the OPSIGATE solution offers an
effective way to handle any information
asset.
