Case Study: AHTOH halves storage costs and streamlines archiving with Archiware P5

AHTOH - Customer Case Study

Archiware P5 helped AHTOH, the production brand of director and DoP Anton Nelson, address the difficulties of managing very large 8K video files. Storing clips on single hard drives was slow, risky, and difficult to search, creating a need for a more reliable archive and backup workflow.

Using Archiware P5 Archive with an mLogic LTO-8 tape drive, along with P5 Backup and P5 Synchronize, AHTOH gained a flexible archive catalog with thumbnails, proxies, and searchable metadata, plus secure off-site tape copies for long-term protection. The result was a faster workflow, easier file retrieval from past productions, and a reported 50% reduction in storage expenditure, while also opening up additional revenue opportunities through easier licensing and reuse of archived footage.
