And with it is a growing need for specialized solutions to manage digital media and the workflows associated with its creation and delivery.ClearStory Enterprise Media Server (EMS) gives you a contemporary foundation for a whole new generation of digital media applications. Unlike digital asset management applications, EMS delivers media management capabilities without the constraints of a packaged application. Instead, you have an extensible platform that delivers the performance and flexibility you need for developing custom and OEM solutions.
Its open-standards, services oriented approach allows for accelerated application development and rapid integration with other enterprise systems. This makes it a favorite with leading systems integrators and application developers.

A Powerful Architecture
- Standards-based Technology
A pure Java EE solution, EMS integrates with open and proprietary systems. - Massive Scalability
An n-tier, services-oriented architecture can be scaled at any layer for flexible deployment options. - Media Processing
Available with media processing tools for a wide range of file types, EMS also supports the integration of new file types and processing engines as they emerge. - Cost Reduction
Save development time, maximize CPU usage, and leverage one platform as the back-end for multiple applications. - Security and Management
Control the system at a granular level for assets, users, groups, or roles.
ClearStory EMS is engineered to support millions of digital media assets in a multitude of formats, with thousands of geographically distributed users.
The services-oriented architecture (SOA) of EMS separates the presentation, business services, persistence, integration, and database layers. The clean separation of the presentation layer allows for rapid development of custom applications.
The true n-tier architecture of EMS allows you to apply processing power where you need it most – for example, if your user community grows, you can add server power only at the presentation layer. The result is a scalable platform that has optimal performance and load balancing with minimal investment.
