Cupertino, CA - Sep 06, 2011

Interra Systems, the industry leader in File-based QC or Automated Content Verification is pleased to announce the integration of its Baton QC solution with Sony's Media Backbone Conductor solution.

File-based media expands the content supply-chain and enables concurrent content processing. Such dynamic, fast-paced environment poses many challenges - limitations in concurrent content processing leading to loss of efficiency or a negative impact on content quality leading to operational disruptions and loss of content monetization potential. The integration of Baton, the leading edge QC solution with Sony Media Backbone Conductor offers the customers a comprehensive solution for file-based workflows with consistent and reliable QC of content at each stage of the workflow.

Sony's Media Backbone Conductor is a Workflow Orchestration and Integration Platform that simplifies the integration of Digital Production Islands and delivers a truly end to end Tapeless Environment. The production islands are connected by a common service bus (ESB) that enables services and resources to be consolidated and shared throughout the enterprise.
