storage built for media production
Edit together, faster
Enable editors, assistants, and finish teams to work simultaneously. NEXIS’ unique media due times pre-fetch and stage content, giving every editor immediate, predictable playback when deadlines matter.
Learn moreScale as you grow
Expand storage volume and performance dynamically as projects, teams, and content demands grow. Add resources during active productions without interrupting live edits or taking systems offline.
Learn moreConnect distributed teams
Unite local edit suites, multi-site facilities, and cloud environments into one connected media ecosystem. Give distributed production teams direct, secure access to shared assets wherever work happens.
Keep media protected and available
Safeguard projects with built-in redundancy and high-availability protection. NEXIS keeps media online and editing sessions running through drive failures, active rebuilds, and unexpected infrastructure issues.
Learn morepowered by the virtual file system
The NEXIS VFS abstracts physical storage into flexible media workspaces, providing the foundation for scale, protection, and deep workflow integration.
Allocate capacity and set protection levels independently of physical hardware. Easily resize workspaces as production needs shift without disturbing active edits.
