LAS VEGAS — NAB Booth SL4314 (April 2008)—Faced with a growing business broadcasting an average of 12 hours of live racing events daily and an aging 15,000-plus videotape library in six different formats, Sky Channel, in Sydney, Australia, made the decision to go digital by purchasing a media asset management and storage solution from SGI (NASDAQ: SGIC). The new digital infrastructure includes SGI® Altix® XE servers and an SGI® InfiniteStorage system, fully integrated into the heart of the station’s operations. Installation began in March 2007, and now that testing and training is complete, Sky Channel is due to go live in early April.
