#SportsNation: The inside look at NCAA Conferences

▪ It’s a brave new world in which NCAA conferences are running entire media empires. Most major plays are not executed on the field, but behind the screen. How does just one conference alone deliver 850 sporting events per year without skipping a beat or missing out on a potential advertising dollar?

Andrew Luck, QB for the Indianapolis Colts, started his All-American career at the Pac-12’s Stanford University

What’s the key to your couch potato sports consumption?!

▪ The answer lies in deeply distributed nationwide servers, and the invaluable petabytes of content (videos, stats, graphics) being scaled, accessed and managed instantly thanks to a new vision for digital-media infrastructure.

No, we mean a different kind of server...

Wait a second…

Can someone please explain this?

And get me a beer…

The Play-by-Play…

• The Situation: Hosting 850 sporting events a year is a whole lot of content! How do you deliver these games to consumers, live and archived on your site, in an efficient manner?

• El Problemo: To deliver this content uninterrupted requires a superstar storage software system and an efficient workflow so that servers can deliver YOU the content you want, when you want it and with no lag time. If you can’t make this happen, why would anyone stay on your site?

• The Fix: A scalable storage solution that doesn’t slow down or freak out with added content, but instead adapts to your growing content needs and delivers your game on time, every time.
