Case Study: Arcadian achieves cost-efficient, secure high-performance streaming with CoreSite colocation

Arcadian cost-effectively transforms digital files into streamable content with CoreSite’s reliable colocation

Arcadian is a post‑production services agency that converts digital files into streamable formats for major film studios, streaming services and creators worldwide. Its work requires intensive compute and strict security, but processing large projects in clients’ public clouds can cost up to five times more than on‑premises; Arcadian’s existing colocation also lacked the security and services needed to protect clients’ assets and support growth.

Arcadian deployed a secure, highly redundant colocation at CoreSite’s Los Angeles campus, gaining private transfer paths that bypass the public internet, strong physical security, and the scale to run complex projects cost‑effectively while keeping simpler work in the cloud. The setup boosts uptime and productivity, enables economies of scale for new customers, and—with a planned AWS Direct Connect onramp—promises lower latency, better security and significant cloud cost savings as Arcadian expands into live streaming.
