"Rorke Dat is proud to be a design and integration partner with Empress Media Asset Management for their eMAM Vault product line," stated Bob Herzan, VP of sales for Rorke Data’s Media and Entertainment Division. "Rorke Data, an Avnet company, employs an open architecture philosophy when designing our servers, so they are able to be used in a wide variety of Media Rich applications. Rorke Data and Empress have worked side by side for over 6 months resulting in a very impressive design, integrating Digital Asset Management, Transcoding and LTO Management into a single, secure and scalable turnkey solution."

Shaun McTernan, VP sales & business development at Empress, added: "Now with the affordably priced eMAM Vault, we can meet the needs of clients just starting to archive their media. As a turnkey system, they will need little or no IT staff to configure and setup the eMAM Vault. The system is also highly scalable, so customers can grow with the system as their needs expand or change over time."
