XDT, developer of advanced software-based
solutions for digital film, announced v2 of its revolutionary
Catapult Server and Ballista software.
Catapult Server v2 marks another milestone in the evolution
of the Catapult protocol. It truly extends its ground-breaking
LAN capabilities to Wide Area Networks.
Catapult Suite Version 2 Highlights:
True 256-bit Extended Validation SSL provides the most powerful
SSL encryption commercially available today, and is the same
maximum level security trusted by government and financial
institutions. Extended Validation gives high security Catapult
clients’ visual assurance through a green address bar.
WAN friendly optimizations achieve maximum throughput over
broadband infrastructure. Bandwidth management tools are provided
to achieve balance between throughput and fairness.
Customers can use the integrated user management interface
to quickly and easily add users to Catapult systems for distribution
of content over the Internet. Per user access controls and
bandwidth caps makes secure information exchange a breeze
for both parties. An open management protocol makes integration
with existing Intranet systems trivial.
"Post production has entered into a truly global workflow.
With post production companies extending their offering across
continents and continued distribution of VFX shots, efficient
and cost effective collaboration has become paramount. WAN
transfers and remote review play a key part in this.",
says Erik Otto, Managing Director at XDT.
"Catapult Server v2 bridges the gap between both worlds.
It enables customers to extend Catapult's unprecedented LAN
performance and efficiency to the WAN. XDT's sole focus on
film and post production is taking WAN capabilities for post
production well beyond the current offering of other standard
data transfer applications".
Ballista pricing starts at only US$4,995 and offers a full
server-based product with unlimited client access up to 110MB/s
(MegaBytes) access.
