Remote Workflows
Like many businesses, you may find yourself needing an IT solution that isn’t something you can get out of a box. Not all problems can be solved by a one-size-fits-all service, especially when it comes to customized software, unique cutting-edge hardware, high-performance requirements, and specialty integration. Unlike other IT outsourcing companies, we pride ourselves on offering customized solutions to every client.
Remote Editing
Content Streaming
If you have ever accessed a remote workspace, you have used a remote display protocol. PCoIP protocols connects users to their remote desktops and workstations, delivering a highly responsive, color-accurate, lossless, and distortion-free experience. MelroseTEC is here to help you and your staff work remotely utilizing the most appropriate software and hardware solutions to match your requirements.

Private Hosting
MelrosePMC (Private Media Cloud) leverages the benefits and efficiencies of cloud-based workflows while eliminating the recurring variable costs of pure cloud-based media workflows. This allows customers to leverage the value of existing, or newly purchased equipment, while still taking advantage of remote editorial workflows enabled by a cloud architecture. It’s the best of both worlds.
You will get access to on-demand connectivity and expansion, paired with predictable all-inclusive monthly costs, and unprecedented managed services to support the creation and delivery of your content.

Storage Solutions
Major Studios, Networks, Post Houses, and Corporate Clients are looking to radically simplify enterprise file data management. With an explosion of high-resolution content and unstructured data sprawl, real-time content management is becoming a serious challenge with the associated increase in file sizes.
MelroseTEC creates workflow solutions for Network Attached Storage (NAS), Shared Area Network (SAN) and Object Sorage, and Cloud Storage using technology-leading products from Qumulo, Quantum, AVID, PacStorage, EditShare, GB Labs and Spectralogic with these features:
• Intelligent multi-tiered storage solutions with primary storage, object storage, or public cloud
• Data protection for physical, virtual, and cloud environments
• High-speed access to shared data across hybrid environments
• Increase productivity and increase ROI
Storage Solutions
MelroseTEC Provides solutions across all storage product segments to meet the needs of our clients. |
|
SAN Storage We design Storage Area Networks (SAN) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) for traditional workflows using primary tier solid state disks and high availability disks, down to lower cost tiers that includes cloud and object storage disks. |
NAS Storage Backup is day to day operations: backup of existing projects (project files and media), server snapshots/databases, and backup of tier 2 to tape if required for quick local restore (Spectralogic’s perspective). This is when nearline tier 2 comes into play, or tape backup with quick restore – accessing data in a matter of minutes and hours, not days. |
Backup/Deep Archive Archive is the backup of data that can be stored long term. Sometimes these assets are stored for a disaster and never used again – The bottom of the ocean theory. Sometimes they need to be stored on tape for posterity, and sometimes they are kept in local or remote tape libraries or Glacier via tape. This data has a restore time that is measured in days and is considered not so critical for operation. |
Disaster Recovery Disaster Recovery is the art of spreading data around to as many sources as possible to prevent catastrophic data loss or a ransomware attack. Sometimes deep tape archive can be grouped in this category via Glacier, but the idea is to have remote data sites, preferably in different states/regions, to prevent the loss of data with protection against ransomware encryption. Recovery times depends on budget, business case use and required restore times. |
Object Storage Object Storage is non-disruptive, independent expansion of compute, network, and storage resources that meets the growing needs for billions of objects and exabytes of capacity. In object storage, the data is broken into discrete units called objects and is kept in a single repository, instead of being kept as files in folders or as blocks on servers. Each object typically includes the data itself, a variable amount of metadata, and a globally unique identifier. |
Cloud Storage Private Cloud is for either hosting new or previously on-premise equipment in a datacenter that is supported by MTEC and controlled by the client. We can hybridize or move your existing on-premise infrastructure to a data center that saves you space, instead of hosting the equipment in an office location with inadequate resources for cooling and power. You get access to on-demand connectivity and expansion, paired with predictable all-inclusive monthly costs, and unprecedented managed services to support the creation and delivery of your content. Hybrid Cloud is a mixture of on-premise and public cloud solutions. |
Melrose solutions include Cloud products, Cloud Services, and Cloud deployments. When creating a Cloud solution, It may be:
• On-Premise cloud that is managed by your in-house team of engineers
• Hybrid Cloud that is managed by the MelroseTEC service team
• Mixture of on-premise and private cloud for the best of business workflow solutions.
When moving your workflow to the Cloud, there are certain criteria to look for:
• Does it support a wide range of applications?
• Are the applications secure?
• Does it provide predictable performance?
• Does it provide predictable performance, and is it flexible to grow?
