Pangbourne, United Kingdom, August 11, 2025 — Disk Archive Corps (DAC) announces its first-ever appearance at SET Expo 2025, Latin America's premier broadcast and media technology event, where it will showcase ALTO, its innovative disk-based archiving solution designed as a powerful alternative to traditional LTO tape and cloud storage.
With growing demand across Latin America for cost-effective, scalable, and environmentally conscious media archiving, DAC's presence in the region is expanding rapidly. The decision to exhibit at SET Expo reflects the company’s commitment to supporting broadcasters, film studios, and media organizations seeking smarter long-term storage strategies.
Why ALTO?
DAC's ALTO platform offers:
Compelling Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) compared to LTO and cloud
Standalone solutions that outperform legacy tape and cloud-only models
Hybrid configurations that seamlessly integrate with cloud and/or LTO workflows
Zero migration architecture meaning as new disk capacities are made available, these can be utilized without costly and time-consuming data migrations as experienced with LTO
Seamless Integration
ALTO is integrated with over 60 leading media workflow platforms, including:
MAM (Media Asset Management) for content cataloguing and retrieval
PAM (Production Asset Management) for managing assets during live and post-production
HSM (Hierarchical Storage Management) for intelligent tiered storage
Orchestration platforms enabling automated workflows, system interoperability, and dynamic resource allocation across complex media environments
This broad integration ensures ALTO fits effortlessly into diverse production ecosystems, whether you're managing live broadcasts, post-production pipelines, or multi-site media operations.
Built for a Greener Future
DAC is committed to sustainability. ALTO’s low-power architecture and COLD based architecture to quickly spin up disks on demand, significantly reduces energy consumption. In addition, by leveraging the latest disk technologies as they become available, ALTO ensures future-proof storage without the environmental or operational burden of periodic data migrations.
