Abstract
This paper describes VISION Cloud, a European Commission Framework Project (EC FP VII) whose aim is to build innovative storage services for a number of key business cases. Among these, the media business case poses a number of challenges connected to the intrinsic characteristics of media assets such as huge dimension, rich metadata and time-critical workflows. As a result, there is a growing need for dedicated “media clouds.” The paper describes the requirements coming from this area, and illustrates the innovations and architectural approaches in the design of the VISION Cloud system. The VISION Cloud project is now in its full development stage, and it is expected that several of the developed technologies will prove to be crucial elements for future media storage systems. More information about the project timeline and deliverables can be found at www.visioncloud.eu.
