Quantum Corp. has been named Integrated Media Technologies (IMT) Global Partner of the Year in media and entertainment for achieving the highest revenue in annual sales among all of Quantum’s channel partners in FY2020, the company announced on Tuesday.
“IMT is a trusted extension of Quantum’s sales force, and for the second year in a row they have achieved top sales figures by demonstrating a command of the unique challenges media and entertainment companies face when managing video data,” said Jamie Lerner, President and CEO, Quantum.
IMT has brought expertise in media asset management and workflow consulting, pre-sales and sales. The company has also provided Quantum certified professional services and managed services. IMT saw notable success selling Quantum’s F-Series NVMe servers for editing, rendering and processing video content and other large unstructured data sets.
Quantum announced the F-Series, a new line of NVMe storage arrays designed for performance, availability and reliability in April 2019. The software has utilized non-volatile memory express (NVMe) flash drives for ultra-fast reads and writes.
The solution has also supported parallel processing and is designed for studio editing, rendering, and other performance-intensive workloads utilizing large unstructured datasets. The F-Series NVMe servers have incorporated Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) networking technology, the F-Series provides direct access between workstations and the NVMe storage devices, delivering predictable, fast network performance.
“Quantum’s commitment to innovation with their F-Series NVMe storage has been a key factor to IMT’s success this past year,” said Jason Kranitz, President, Systems Integration, IMT. “IMT shares in Quantum’s vision to focus on video, and together we have been able to win significant market share with customers in media, broadcast, post production, sports production, and corporate video.”
