By leveraging the ComputeNext Global Cloud Marketplace, users will be able to deploy STORM on-demand on a selection of over 30 different cloud infrastructure providers each offering a unique value proposition, price point, SLA as well as offering the largest selection of geographic locations to enable the ability to geo-locate the send and receive nodes for faster file transfer.
The precision of STORM’s packet management protocol enables broadcasters to ensure accuracy in having broadcast content delivered across a network of local TV stations simultaneously. STORM is also applicable in use cases for other industries where large data file transfers are required quickly and frequently such as:
• Global Financial Services Businesses
• Medical Imaging and other Healthcare applications
• Media companies including creative and digital agencies
