One of the key beneficiaries of this expansion is Liverpool Football Club (LFC), which uses Wasabi AiR to manage its media assets securely and at scale. The partnership with Wasabi allows LFC to efficiently manage its large library of media assets, quickly access relevant content segments, and streamline content creation. The collaboration between IBM and Wasabi is designed to enable enterprises to run applications across any environment and help users to cost efficiently access and use key business data and analytics in real time.
Key takeaways:
- Wasabi Technologies is expanding their data management offerings for customers with the addition of IBM Cloud’s London data center to Wasabi’s storage regions.
- Wasabi's deployment in IBM’s London MZR aims to help new and existing UK customers utilizing Wasabi AiR, an intelligent media storage solution for the sports, media, and entertainment segment, address their data residency requirements.
- Liverpool Football Club will be able to access and leverage key sports data securely across a hybrid cloud infrastructure, and unlock the joint power of this expansion.
- IBM and Wasabi began collaborating last year to drive data innovation across hybrid cloud environments for sports, media and entertainment clients such as the Boston Red Sox.
