Tegenwoordig gaan IT en AV in elkaar op. Dit lijstje is handig betreft datastreams uit de digi camera's van tegenwoordig.
BYTE: Short for binary term, a byte can store a single character of information.
FIBRE CHANNEL: Or FC.A data-transfer architecture designed for mass storage and other devices that need to transfer very high-bandwidth content, such as video and audio files. It uses fiber-optic cables to connect devices and supports transfer rates of 100 megabits (that's 100 million bytes) per second (100Mbps) in two directions.
FTP: Short for File Transfer Protocol, FTP allows files to be exchanged over the Internet. It's an important part of transferring large video files from one facility to another.
GIGABIT ETHERNET: Or GigE Another form of data transfer, it supports rates of 1 gigabit (or 1,000 megabits) per second (1 Gbps).
GIGABYTE: (GB) Equal to 1,024 megabytes of storage.
KILOBYTE: (KB) Equal to 1,024 bytes of storage.
LAN: A local area network is a group of computer and video servers within the same facility.
MXF: Short for Material Exchange Format, a protocol that places a metadata wrapper around a video or audio file and allows it to be transferred from one video server to another, regardless of the format a server uses.
MEGABYTE: (MB) Equal to 1,048,576 bytes of storage
METADATA: Description information related to a given video or audio file. It typically includes when the content was recorded, who was involved with the material's acquisition, where it was recorded, and possible keywords describing the content. Think of it as Cliffs Notes for a file.
NETWORKED ATTACHED STORAGE ARCHITECTURE: Or NAS. In this approach, a network-attached storage (NAS) device is dedicated to file-sharing. The server handles all the processing of data but does not actually store any content itself. As a result, more hard-disk storage space can be added to a network without existing servers' having to be shut down. It is not to be confused with SAN (see below).
PETABYTE: (PB) Equal to 1,024 TBs (see below).
STORAGE AREA NETWORK ARCHITECTURE: Or SAN. A high-speed subnetwork of shared storage devices - in this case, video servers. The advantage of a SAN is that stored data does not reside directly on any of the servers, leaving more network capacity available to the end user and making it possible to have more server power dedicated to applications. The servers typically reside on a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN).
TERABYTE: (TB) Equal to 1,024 gigabytes of storage.
TRANSCODE: Taking a computer file stored in one format and converting it to another so it can be more easily used and distributed. Transcoding is typically done by a third-party device that sits between two other devices.
WAN : A wide area network, computers and servers connected over a long distance. It typically includes two or more LAN's (see above).
Apace Systems NAS Storage speeds. How fast to move data?
To calculate how long to move files or data on a GigE ethernet network from Apace Systems NAS:
Question: How long to transfer on GigE pipe 200GB of data?
Answer: Take 200GB x 1000 = 200,000. MB or Megabytes. The speed of our Apace Systems NAS storage devices are from 200MB per second (MBps) or up to 400 MB per second (MBps) depending on model. Remember not Mega BIT, but Mega BYTE, 8 bits to a byte.
Take 200,000. MB divided by 200MB per second or: 1000 seconds, divided by 60 seconds to a minute: 16.66 minutes
16.66 minutes to move 200GB with Apace Systems 200MBps NAS!!!
Take 200,000. MB divided by 400MB per second or: 500 seconds, divided by 60 seconds to a minute: 8.3 minutes
8.3 minutes to move 200GB with Apace Systems 400MBps NAS !!!
