Integration Overview
Frame.io is a video collaboration tool trusted by millions of global users and it is recently part of the Adobe Creative Cloud portfolio. Providing one central hub, users can share media, track feedback, and streamline workflows so teams can work closely together from anywhere in the world. Iconik is a leading, cloud-native Media Asset Management platform that gathers and organizes media securely from any storage. With powerful automation tools, Iconik has direct integrations with a host of Adobe Creative Cloud applications.
A common challenge our customers face is how to streamline workflow operations between tiered cloud storage, cloud storage management and cost-reduction on all elements of cloud-based infrastructures.
With these goals in mind, and as a trusted Adobe Video Solutions Partner, our team of experts have developed a seamless integration between Frame.io, the Iconik MAM and our tiered cloud storage platform. This enables users to easily export and archive entire Frame.io projects to low cost ‘cold storage’ at the click of a button.
