Case Study: CinePostproduction delivers digital movies faster with IBM Aspera On Demand

Industry disrupted with hybrid cloud solution that delivers digital movies to theaters

CinePostproduction GmbH, a Munich-based postproduction company, was looking to disrupt the film services industry by finding a faster and less expensive method for delivering large digital cinema packages to theaters, moving beyond traditional satellite and courier delivery. To achieve this, the customer turned to vendor IBM and implemented its IBM Aspera On Demand solution.

The IBM solution established a high-speed, secure, and cost-effective hybrid cloud distribution platform that uses existing theater internet connections. This dramatically decreased delivery times from days to hours and eliminated the need for expensive IT upgrades at cinemas. The vendor's technology allowed CinePostproduction to roll out its new service to over 100 theaters and has created a path for expansion to over 1,000 theaters across Europe.
