Case Study: RTVE achieves 90% faster archive search and improved content accessibility with OpenText

Public broadcaster accelerates multimedia data search and retrieval across 20M+ assets from days to seconds with OpenText™ IDOL™

RTVE, the Spanish public broadcaster, struggled with slow and cumbersome searches across a 50-year archive of more than 20 million assets stored in disparate systems and formats. With video, text, image, and audio content spread across different databases and programming languages, journalists and producers often spent hours or days finding the right material, delaying TV and radio production. OpenText helped RTVE address this challenge with the OpenText Knowledge Discovery unstructured data analytics platform.

OpenText implemented a unified, user-friendly index to make RTVE’s diverse archive searchable and easier to access. The result was a 90% reduction in search time, significantly improved content accessibility, and faster TV and radio content production. OpenText’s solution revolutionized RTVE’s production efficiency by enabling staff to find relevant media assets much more quickly.
