Metal Toad Tackles M&E Cloud Ecosystem in Interview Series

Amazon Web Services (AWS) consulting specialist Metal Toad has released the latest in a series of interviews with AWS independent software vendor (ISV) media and entertainment partners, covering all corners of the cloud-related media and entertainment ecosystem.

Joaquin Lippincott, CEO of Metal Toad, details the interview series in a blog post, and how Metal Toad is working to help customers by making strategic recommendations and helping get projects off the ground quickly.

“There has been one space in entertainment that has been booming, and that’s cloud,” Lippincott wrote. “The reasons are simple: whether a production is ultimately super successful or not, costs should not be fixed.”

The series of cross-industry CIO and CEO interviews include “Metadata” with Rob Tucker at Meta, “Digital Watermarking and Security” with Ken Gerstein at NAGRA, “Unstructured File Data at Scale” with Barry Russell at Qumulo, “Artificial Intelligence” with Greg Loose at Veritone, and “Media & Entertainment Cloud Ecosystem” with Ian McPherson at AWS. All interviews feature both video and an accompanying article.

Metal Toad plans on continuing the series through 2021. To access all the interviews, click here.
