NEW ANNOUNCEMENT

Live PERFORMANCE
Cloud INTELLIGENCE

arkona has partnered with manifold technologies to support the world's first virtualized Tier-1 live production software - manifold CLOUD

manifold CLOUD offers the benefits of virtualization while retaining the performance that Tier-1 broadcast clients are expecting

manifold CLOUD offers Multiviewer, Up/Down/Cross conversion, Colorspace conversion, Audio shuffling and more, all through a single-sign-on web UI

Live Performance
All manifold CLOUD services are performed with guaranteed sub-frame latency just as live event operators are used to.
Services focus
Simple configuration. Focus on the what not the how. Easily save productions as code
Built-in resiliency
manifold CLOUD is inherently self healing and will automatically recover from processing failure.
Energy efficient
AT300 uses 90% less power than comparable CPU based servers.

at300 FPGA ACCELERATOR CARD

Designed for hybrid-cloud environments where compute heavy uncompressed 4K workflows are most efficiently processed at the edge, the AT300 is arkona's latest generation Programmable Acceleration Card (PAC). 

Powered with Intel S10MX FPGAs and with dual non-blocking 100GE interfaces, it packs a tremendous amount of compute power into a compact format while still being 40% more power efficient than the previous generation.

Highest density 4K/HDR

With its dual non-blocking native 100GE interfaces, the AT300 provides the highest density 4K/HDR solution on the market with up to 85 UHD instances per RU

12 x faster performance

Designed with 300 GBps HBM2 memory the AT300 is the industry's first compute platform with High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) that provides up to 12 x more memory bandwidth compared to DDR4 RAM

Seamless integration
Fits directly into existing frames and rear-plates allowing for easy upgrade and expansion
Software defined
Easily interchangeable software apps that are fully controllable through our modern and open WebSocket API or through AMWA NMOS IS-04 and IS-05

API FIRST

At arkona we believe in open standards and an API first approach. API First allows for a high degree of flexibility where user specific workflows are at the center, and where an operator is no longer limited by static and proprietary "standard" operational models. We have built an extensive and powerful API which let's you control ALL features of our software through WebSocket or NMOS, putting YOU in charge.
