Case Study: ITV Studios Nederland lowers storage costs with Wasabi Cloud NAS

ITV Studios Netherlands Lowers Storage Costs Without Sacrificing Performance

ITV Studios Nederland, one of the largest production houses in the Netherlands, needed scalable hot storage to keep up with a growing repository of raw footage and 4K content. Its on-premises file cluster had become a costly “parking space” for media, and cloud alternatives were unattractive because of ingress and egress fees. The company turned to Wasabi Technologies and Wasabi Cloud NAS to find a more flexible, high-performance storage option.

With Wasabi Technologies’ Wasabi Cloud NAS, ITV Studios Nederland gained fast, intuitive access to footage that feels local to editors while automatically moving unused data to Wasabi to free up space. The result was easier scalability, predictable per-terabyte pricing with no hidden fees, and on-premises-like performance and availability. ITV says the setup worked smoothly from day one, and the time to retrieve clips improved dramatically compared with Glacier or tape—cutting waits from 12 hours to about five minutes in some cases.
