web serving and streaming media
Web server and streaming servers can share a common library of dynamic content, allowing web interfaces and streaming media products to scale to serve large audiences rapidly and flexibly.
Websites are a key component of most business’ customer interaction and need to quickly respond to changes in traffic. Streaming media installations are increasingly common as elements of websites, as corporate communication tools, and as educational tools both on-campus and for distant learning initiatives. Streaming audio and video on demand to many types of consumer devices has become increasingly common, and prospectively IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) will become an important competitor to traditional broadcast and cable distribution.
Two common challenges are to scale websites across multiple servers without replicating content across each server, and to make very large media content libraries available without replicating content for each streaming server. Sanbolic’s software allows multiple servers running IIS, Windows media Services, or other applications, to have shared read-write access to large dynamic content libraries residing on SAN storage.
As the data or content grows, Sanbolic’s LaScala enables additional storage arrays to be added to the shared content without taking the system offline. The additional capacity is immediately available to all servers. As the web traffic or use of streamed content grows, Sanbolic’s Melio FS allows additional web or streaming servers to be added to the infrastructure dynamically to support additional users.
