LucidLink Filespaces V.2.0 to Accelerates Connected Creativity With Spring 2022 Release

LucidLink announced the availability of Filespaces 2.0 as part of its Spring 2022 launch.

Building on its global file systems, it enables organizations of any size to adopt cloud services, providing more flexible hybrid office strategies for employees no matter the location. 

“Our file streaming technology has been re-architected from the ground up to meet the ever-growing demand for active remote collaboration. The new architecture of Filespaces 2.0 allows us to support much larger organizations, with thousands of users, hundreds of millions of files in storage, and a much-improved performance and responsiveness,” said George Dochev, co-founder and CTO. “This is a foundational piece of technology that will enable the company to scale and support enterprise customers of any size.”

Filespaces 2.0 includes:

• Metadata streaming – Collaborating over long distances often exceeds hundreds of concurrent users, having access to millions of files. Metadata streaming introduces algorithms for Internet-based file streaming, increasing teams’ overall system responsiveness and productivity on tight deadlines.

• Faster filespaces – Fast responsiveness enables team members to browse Filespaces of any size with hundreds of millions of files without downtime seen with traditional cloud storage file synchronization.

• Instantly accessible snapshots – Snapshots offer a way to restore prior versions of individual files or revert entire Filespaces to earlier points. The new highly scalable architecture of Filespaces 2.0 makes instant access to snapshots now possible, accelerating the productivity of creative teams with large projects.

• Improved file locking – Distributed global file locking improves performance with increased resilience in a distributed environment. Windows users receive the file locking experience on par with NAS.

“Once we found LucidLink, we were able to become a worldwide business and run our production 24/7,” said James Wiley, partner, GoDigital Unlimited. “LucidLink has changed our lives and our clients’ lives. We can keep our 5K RED cameras running all day, transferring footage in the evening and receiving the content from our editors the next morning. The speed and capabilities of Filespaces 2.0 have increased our business threefold, and we continue to grow rapidly.”

Deploy on Microsoft Azure Marketplace
Azure customers can take advantage of Filespaces 2.0 with the streamlined deployment, procurement, and application management provided by the firm’s new availability on Microsoft Azure Marketplace.

LucidLink is an exhibiting sponsor at the National Association of Broadcasters show, April 24-27. The company will demo the new capabilities of Filespaces 2.0 and their workflow integration with Adobe, Avid, Blackmagic Design, Telestream, and more.
