New Drama Life is the first civilian dramatist reality show in China. Summoned by Huang Lei and Stan Lai, eight civilian dramatists together form a new theatrical company in Wuzhen. Within eight weeks, they live here and prepare for a performance. While earning their own fund for the show, each of them have the opportunity to compete, with the fund, for launching a theater and to obtain the right to use the theater for one year.
To ensure the stability of delivering the program, the current solution requires dual-controller architecture and high bandwidth, along with attributes including stability, safety, scalability, and maintainability. New Drama Life expects to achieve better availability through the bandwidth, as noted in the following statements:
• The front-end editing system requires non-linear editing and separate permission setting
• The back-end storage device demand high capacity and scalability.
• The high efficiency of the platform requires no additional third-party products consumption.
• The system should take advantage of network bank with iSCSI or fibre channel.
After evaluation, New Drama Life selected QSAN XN5 for front-end co-editing and SAN + XD5 for back-end backup to meet current and future data needs.
