DDP HA – True High Availability for Broadcast & Media

Always On. Always Fast. Always Reliable.
DDP HA High Availability is built for television, broadcast, and post-production environments where downtime is not an option.
Powered by the proprietary Audio/Video File System (A/V FS), DDP HA delivers instant startup, nonstop operation, and seamless performance across Mac, Windows, and Linux.

Performance Redefined for Media Production

DDP Shared Storage combines the speed of SAN with the simplicity of Ethernet — delivering superior throughput and reliability for demanding audio, film, and video workflows.
Experience uninterrupted collaboration and real-time file access even under the heaviest workloads.
Highlights
Cross-Platform A/V FS – High-speed sharing for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Ethernet-based SAN – Faster and more efficient than traditional NAS.
Free Unlimited SAN Licenses – No client fees, ever.
Eco-Friendly Design – Up to 50 % lower power consumption.

True Active/Active Architecture – Not Just Marketing
Many “high-availability” systems are only Active/Passive, creating takeover delays and performance loss.
DDP HA is different.
It’s true Active/Active, ensuring zero frame loss, instant failover, and continuous performance — even during controller events.
Where Others Compromise
Node-based “XOR” designs require 3–4 nodes, causing slow data redistribution during expansion.
One node failure = 25 % less capacity and performance.
More nodes mean more controllers, CPUs, and power — higher cost, higher energy use.
Where DDP Leads
Instant Failover – No downtime, no performance drop.
Compact & Efficient – Only 5U rack space and 4 PSUs vs. 10U/12 PSUs for others.
Immediate Expansion – Add storage instantly, no redistribution required.
Massive Scalability – Up to 40 PB capacity / 400 GB/s bandwidth.
Turnkey & Flexible – Works with Seagate, Pure Storage, Infortrend, Promise.
Proprietary A/V FS – Built-in metadata resilience and file-based SSD caching.
