Light Sail VR, a full-service creative studio that specialises in immersive media storytelling, has selected the Atlas storage platform from OpenDrives to modernise its creative production business.
OpenDrives is a provider of software-defined media storage workflow solutions and its Atlas platform enables customers to increase data storage and processing on the fly, accelerating creative workflows by as much as threefold.
According to Light Sail VR, the transition to Atlas has greatly improved the team's productivity, streamlined their workflows, and optimised their data management capabilities. With features like mount management and containerisation, Light Sail VR is able to effectively scale their existing storage and add resources, thus enabling them to onboard more commercial projects effectively and swiftly using various third-party tools available through OpenDrives’ containers marketplace.
Matthew Celia, Co-Founder & Creative Director, Light Sail VR, added, “OpenDrives was our most important investment at the very outset, as the new infrastructure would set the stage for greater efficiency.
“The effortless and swift integration into our existing operation enabled us to continue working on the growing number of creative projects without any technology-related glitches. With the enormous flexibility to expand storage as needed, OpenDrives is a game changer, allowing us to focus on our actual passion — creativity."
Sean Lee, CEO, OpenDrives, added, “It's our mission to enhance the creative journey with high-performance, low-latency data solutions.“The OpenDrives founders and leaders are from the entertainment industry and thus have a deep understanding of the iterative nature of the creative process. We designed Atlas to enable quicker cycles, not just for faster deliveries, but to enrich creativity even under the tightest of deadlines.”
