WHAT IT DOES

Level 3 Cloud Content Exchange is a digital workflow solution that leverages the connectivity of Level 3’s IP backbone and our global Cloud Storage platform to deliver a B2B file distribution solution for customers needing to publish, distribute, and transport large files to a global audience.

HOW IT WORKS

Cloud Content Exchange is comprised of:

Global Cloud Storage Platform: A redundant, geo-diverse cloud storage solution with scalability to grow into tens of Petabytes per customer.

Fast File Transport: Upload and download content via a proprietary high-speed UDP data transfer protocol into our Global Cloud Storage Platform.

Secure User Interface:

• Add and manage metadata sets; use predetermined metadata for particular file types

• Add users and create groups with varying permissions to assets. Share a single piece of content or a single directory with visibility and access to only that content

• Customize the interface with your logo and a name-based URL for access to Cloud Content Exchange

• Tailor the notification system to let users know they can access new content relevant to their workflow

• Share content with users outside your company without providing access to your entire workflow

• Integrate API’s enabling bulk upload; XML file can be used to import meta-data automatically

Whether it’s content from a local studio, a remote film set or sporting event, you need to transfer footage quickly and securely. Content producers must rely on minimal remote production teams to keep talent centralized and reduce costs. File sizes are growing to support high-bit-rate distribution. Physical shipping, with potential for theft and loss, is no longer the most reliable solution. With Level 3® Cloud Content Exchange, you can transfer large, business-critical files quickly and securely. Organize and share files with work groups using metadata in our Cloud Content Exchange portal. Control access with an easy interface. Publish and transport files worldwide over the Level 3 global network. In a hyper-connected world, adopting cloud-based technologies for digitized workflows can provide a high-availability, high-quality transfer solution at a lower cost than physical distribution.
