Case Study: Museum of the Future achieves scalable media storage and editing performance with Synology

Museum of the Future streamlines 8K media storage with Synology and over 100TB of capacity

The Museum of the Future faced exponentially growing storage demands, needing a secure and reliable solution for high-resolution media content up to 8K. To address an annual increase of roughly 110TB, the museum turned to Synology Inc. for a robust storage infrastructure.

Synology implemented a scalable on-premises solution using SA3400 units as the backbone for exhibition playback and all-flash DS3622xs+ and FS3600 units for live video editing. This setup seamlessly supports over 100 media display endpoints and provides over 100TB of capacity. The museum's team also leverages Synology's license-free Active Backup suite to protect collaboration data, finding the overall system to be a proven, reliable, and essential component of their media operations.
