Case Study: MediaNet Digital achieves 6x faster billing and continuous availability with Brocade SAN

Powerful SAN Keeps Music and Video Delivery Services on Track

MediaNet Digital, a New York–based leader in B2B digital entertainment that stores more than a petabyte of content and adds roughly a terabyte weekly, needed to track partner transaction data and produce daily billing and activity reports while meeting strict SLAs. Its legacy NAS infrastructure became increasingly unreliable and report generation stretched to nearly 24 hours, threatening revenue processing and partner commitments.

Partnering with Advanced Systems Group, MediaNet moved to a Brocade data center fabric using Brocade 48000 Directors with Hitachi storage, implementing a dedicated SAN. The new solution cut daily report processing from about 24 hours to four, delivered continuous availability, met SLAs, and provided scalable, energy-efficient performance to support ongoing growth.
