COEUS is a managed digital archive that is device-independent, future-proof and fully secure. This intuitive cloud-based solution helps broadcast companies, post-production facilities, VFX houses, and media content producers achieve a common goal: ensuring content is safe and instantly available.
Secure storage for media content
Easy access to media content at any time, from anywhere
Cost-effective subscription price plans
Unlock productivity with intelligent media management
COEUS combines the flexibility and agility that media enterprises need with practical deployment.
It provides short and long-term storage, management and protection of media files. By enabling easy access for uploading, viewing, repurposing and retrieving media content, it helps organise and securely store ever-growing high-bitrate content volumes to ensure performance.
It comprises two elements. The first is a software application — supplied and managed by ERA, a leading provider of media asset management solutions for physical and digital content. The second is object-based cloud storage or data-centre-based storage managed by ERA. Since COEUS software works seamlessly with any storage medium, the choice is yours!
Why choose COEUS?
Data security
Storing assets even as a backup in the cloud whilst a copy remains onsite prevents the loss or theft of content for extra peace of mind.
Easy deployment
Using COEUS is as easy as accessing a website or copying data to a local directory. It automatically migrates data either virtually to cloud object storage or via an onsite COEUS appliance. COEUS can even link to a local tape library to store redundant physical and cloud-based media copies.
Simple recovery
Metadata-rich search allows you to find files quickly, and a proxy viewer means you can browse and playback video assets in the archive at frame-accurate low resolution. Selected clips can be restored and downloaded at full resolution.
Controlled costs
COEUS is a service with transparent pricing and no hidden surprises. Whether deployed as an appliance onsite or as software in the cloud, simple monthly subscription plans are available — just add the amount of storage you require, sold per TB as consumed.
