What is Cloud Media Portal?
XenData’s Cloud Media Portal is software that provides a web interface to your cloud archive. The archived content can be stored on any of the public cloud providers listed here. It allows your distributed team to browse previews of your archived video and image files without downloading the high-resolution versions. Having selected the required files, team members can then download the files that they need.
Does it write to object storage in a standard way?
Yes, each file is written to a single object and is compatible with a wide range of applications and utilities provided by the cloud storage providers including Azure AzCopy, Azure Storage Explorer, Wasabi Explorer for Mac and Windows.
Can it run on a VM?
Yes, the Media Portal software can be installed on either a physical Windows machine or VM, which can be on-premises or in the cloud. The supported Windows operating systems are listed at this link. The VM or physical PC has a managed disk volume which stores the previews and provides caching for files that are written to the Media Portal.

XenData’s fully supported clustered server meets all the requirements for our disaster recovery site. We have been very pleased with the SX-525 product and XenData’s technical team who have provided system design and integration services above and beyond expectations.
Crew Cuts
I did my research, and the best archive solution was from XenData which manages a robotic LTO library behind the scenes. This helps to minimize our total costs and allows us to focus on producing great content for our customers.
Ideal Systems Singapore
We partnered with XenData for the GlobeCast Broadcast facility rollout, because it offers one of the most cost effective, robust digital video archives on the market and a great migration alternative to some of the more expensive digital video archive vendor offerings.
North Shore Automation
Having completed over 25 joint installations of XenData archive systems, we have found everyone on the XenData team to be both highly professional and super responsive and their technology to be rock solid. They are truly a pleasure to work with.
This is Just a Test
With over 558 TB of content and growing, conventional backup solutions just don’t work for us. Our XenData system allows us to maintain an ongoing mirrored copy of our shared storage while creating replica LTO copies for offsite storage.
Excelencia
We have now installed over 170 XenData archive systems across Mexico and they have proven to be very reliable. In addition, the technical support from XenData has been outstanding.
