The Challenge
DSB Consulting, a private technology and consulting firm based in Los Angeles, California, aimed to address a significant challenge in the media and entertainment sector: piracy. Traditional cloud-based media management systems often involve moving a large amount of content back and forth between editorial facilities and the cloud, which not only slows down the process but also increases the risk of piracy. DSB Consulting envisioned an innovative approach to video editing that would enable users from virtually anywhere in the world to easily access and work on video content with minimal risk. The idea was to virtualize the editing workstation and move it into the cloud, thereby taking the tools to the content instead of moving the content to the tools.

The Solution
DSB Consulting provisioned SoftLayer® infrastructure with NVIDIA GRID GPU technology to launch a product preview of its BeBop video editing service. The SoftLayer cloud infrastructure provided robust GPU technology capable of handling large video editing workloads and enabling virtual workstation access. The company also incorporated the Teradici Pervasive Computing Platform into the solution to ensure virtually flawless performance from any access point. The Teradici component is a critical piece in delivering a high-performing, secure, and uncompromised user experience. The SoftLayer architecture provides the flexibility and control to respond to any kind of security requirement, making it an ideal platform for DSB Consulting's innovative video editing service.
