Practically Eliminate Waiting With MASV Express File Transfer to On-Prem Storage

Real-time file transfer technology moves files while uploads are still in progress, so teams can start working immediately

For any workflow where seconds count and deadlines loom, MASV Express – a new acceleration technology that enables transfers to begin while uploads are still in progress – is now available for use with connected on-premises destinations.

After all, waiting for file transfers is no one’s idea of a good time. Slow or failed transfers can quickly derail urgent media workflows and data pipelines, leading to missed deadlines, added costs, annoyed collaborators, and agitated clients.

MASV Express practically eliminates this kind of tedious waiting for multi-file transfers by providing near real-time availability of uploaded files.

MASV Express: What’s New?

Available since July for delivery to Amazon S3 cloud storage, the newest version of MASV Express can send data to on-prem and cloud-based storage devices (such as Synology or QNAP NAS, or Amazon EBS, EC2, or EFS) running the latest MASV Agent or MASV Desktop Beta App.

What Benefits Do I Get From MASV Express?

MASV Express transfers any size of file to the cloud or connected storage devices while uploads are still in progress. For multi-file transfer packages, Express enables recipients to access individual files as they’re finished uploading.

This builds on the well-known benefits of MASV – including already-fast transfers, relentless reliability, and drag-and-drop ease of use – while ensuring there’s no need for recipients to wait for the entire package to finish transferring before they can start working.

That’s a huge bonus for teams already under punishing deadlines to deliver broadcast- or streaming-ready media as fast as possible.

MASV Express benefits:

• Faster overall transfers to multiple simultaneous destinations combined with the reliability and simplicity of MASV’s cloud-based, easy-to-use file transfer model – a win-win.
• The ability to access individual files as they arrive, so teams don’t need to wait for an entire package to finish transferring before being able to access files.
• Because teams no longer have to wait for the entire package to arrive, they can start working on transferred files immediately. 

How Does MASV Express for On-Prem Devices Work?

While you can use the MASV Desktop App to unlock the fastest possible transfer speeds to any destination, customers can use MASV Agent and Storage Gateway to integrate MASV with a target on-premises storage.
