KyLinTV, which recently launched a subscription Web-service delivering Chinese broadcast TV channels and VOD, selected FalconStor Software's PrimeVault facility to manage its content. KyLinTV is hosting more than 15,000 hours of broadcast TV and VOD programming. The company is also adding about 1 terabyte of entertainment content per month.
PrimeVault's high availability network storage infrastructure is powered by FalconStor's IPStor software. PrimeVault is equipped for data protection and resiliency from both a software and hardware perspective. The company said its PrimeVault facility includes multiple security layers, dual power grids and three 1.1 megawatt emergency generators, providing sufficient backup power to keep facilities operational at maximum load, with a smooth transition to back-up power.
PrimeVault resides in 50,000 sq ft of space in Melville, New York.
