IMT's SoDA, Reach Engine by Levels Beyond Construct Solution for Fast Insight Into Cloud Costs, Asset Retrieval Times

IMT Software, a division of Integrated Media Technologies, and REACH ENGINE by Levels Beyond have announced a solution that provides users with the tools to manage and move media files to and from the cloud, providing access to cost and time variables before files are moved. Based on IMT’s SoDA data management software and REACH ENGINE’s media orchestration platform, the solution enables real-time reporting on service-level agreements, jobs and data retrieval costs.

COVID has compelled people across the globe to work remotely, and as a result, more content is moving into the cloud. To maximize data use and data movement from the cloud, customers must look to new solutions that quickly and directly access, analyze and gain insight into cloud spend. For many of these users, the massive amount of data being moved into the cloud has outgrown data monitoring and orchestration organizations’ capabilities.

“Customers are continually moving data to the cloud and are searching for new ways to leverage real-time reporting on jobs, cost of cloud spend and asset retrieval times,” said Brian Morsch, vice president of sales at IMT Software. “By partnering with REACH ENGINE, our SoDA software application is fundamentally changing how media creators are able to manage and move media files to and from the cloud.”

IMT’s SoDA and REACH ENGINE’s solution provides a foundation for the future with its ability to search content, whether on-prem, in the cloud, or archived. In addition, it provides advanced insight into cloud spend and the time it takes to retrieve files, allowing customers to make smart decisions on how content is accessed, and providing bill back for project or user tracking.

“There is tremendous synergy in our partnership with IMT Software. By combining its best of breed software, SoDA, with our media orchestration technology, we can provide media creators with increased insight capabilities,” said Wes Rosenberg, Chief Technology Officer at Reach Engine. “Many of our customers are looking for richer feature sets to manage content between on-prem and the cloud. This solution between our two companies offers a complete solution that maximizes our customers’ cloud spending while minimizing complexity, allowing them to confidently meet their evolving business needs.”
