Case Study: BASE Media Cloud achieves rapid, large-scale global file transfers for COPA90 with Signiant Media Shuttle

BASE Media Cloud - Customer Case Study

COPA90, the world’s largest independent football media company reaching over 100 million people, needed to ingest, move and publish unprecedented volumes of fan-generated and in-house video during the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Scaling to a distributed creator network (230 creators across 40+ countries) and producing thousands of assets for global platforms created a major challenge for fast, reliable file transfer, cloud storage and searchable archiving.

BASE Media Cloud and Signiant’s Media Shuttle provided an on-demand multi-cloud solution: rapid, secure file transfers into BASE’s storage, a managed Media Asset Management portal, and automated encoding and streaming workflows. The platform migrated roughly 0.5 PB into a secure archive, supported the delivery of more than 6,000 content assets and helped COPA90 achieve over 750 million views during the tournament — all with predictable costs and the ability to quickly scale operations.
