“At Pixit Media we appreciate that with ever decreasing budgets companies need intelligent and data aware file systems to ensure data is stored on the most cost effective storage platforms,” said Barry Evans, Technical Director, Pixit Media. “That’s why we’re pleased to be demonstrating our relevant solutions this year at BVE, enabling customers to invest wisely in non-proprietary technology that does not lock them in to one vendor.”

This metadata centric storage management tool enables users to make secure commercial decisions on where to store data and use advanced analytics to help make decisions on where to keep it and for how long.
