Merlin DAM is now Available on Amazon Web Services (AWS)

QUINCY, Mass. - May 3, 2016 - PRLog -- You asked for it, you got it! MerlinOne has expanded its Merlin digital asset management service options to include support for instances running on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Customers may license Merlin and run everything in the AWS cloud. Alternatively, for those IT shops that prefer a hybrid solution, you can run the applications and databases locally and choose to use AWS only to store the digital assets and thumbnails. Existing Merlin customers can easily migrate their on-premise systems to the cloud. AWS provides redundancy, dynamic scalability, and the option of duplicating data to data centers worldwide.

"The depth and breadth of products available from Amazon AWS brings unparalleled flexibility, scalability and redundancy to our Merlin DAM customers. The ease in which you can integrate and employ each type of service makes forklift upgrades a thing of the past." - Jeff Seidensticker - MerlinOne VP of IT & COO

In addition, Amazon AWS S3 support will be joining our established Software-as-a-Service offering, which is hosted in a managed data center located in the United States. Boasting a top-notch co-location facility with high security, generator backups and multiple connections to Internet backbones, Merlin Hosting provides performance and uptime guarantees, and complete redundancy. Merlin on AWS and Merlin as a hosted SaaS offering each have different economics and options, so no matter what your needs, Merlin has a solution for you!
