Import Services Operations can define how new assets are processed during the import process. Rules can be established by file type, content, and location. During the import process, assets can be automatically indexed based upon their content and file system characteristics.
Sites can register third-party products to process specific file types.
Multiple processing steps can be established with the output from one process being input to the next. One or more regions on RAID storage spanning across multiple servers can be configured for automatic import processing. New assets can be automatically copied from a monitored area into another where they are automatically catalogued and indexed. This is perfect for FTP upload directories. Selected assets can be packaged for distribution via FTP, e-mail, or to removable media.
