Wasabi selected to streamline Legendary Entertainment’s content storage

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 11 -- Wasabi, the hot cloud storage company has been selected by Legendary Entertainment, the production company behind films such as Pokémon Detective Pikachu, Enola Holmes and the Godzilla franchise to provide a sustainable and flexible cloud solution to streamline its content storage.

Legendary will use Wasabi to cut storage costs and solve the data management challenges associated with the production, development and delivery of film, television and digital assets.

According to a statement, Wasabi’s simple, predictable and affordable hot cloud storage has provided immediate benefits to Legendary’s storage footprint.

Legendary has been able to offload expensive, Tier 1, on-premises storage and break down multiple storage silos while improving remote access to media assets.

With Wasabi, Legendary’s team can freely access their content without incurring expensive data egress charges while also spending less time searching and managing files.

“We’re proud to provide Legendary with a solution that addresses these challenges head-on while enabling them to improve collaboration and file accessibility anywhere and anytime,” said Wasabi chief executive officer and co-founder, David Friend.

As the media and entertainment industry continues to be more dispersed, centralising storage with Wasabi has enabled greater remote access of files and improved collaboration over distance.

This has significantly improved the ability for Legendary team members to work from their homes without compromising access to work in progress and archived assets. Legendary can now expand its reach for hiring talent without geographical restraint.
