So has the measurement of success, the price of attracting top talent and the rhythms of work for Hollywood’s rank-and-file. What we watch, when we watch, where we watch, even how we watch has changed significantly, fueled and shaped by technological advancements, the rise of social media platforms, the proliferation of TV programming, the COVID-19 pandemic and the fragmentation of the culture itself. Led by Netflix, that revolution has come to inflect - or infect, depending on who you ask - nearly every aspect of the industry. More broadly, though, the conflict is over the very nature of the streaming revolution, which has in the last decade-plus upended film and TV as dramatically as color photography in the 1950s or the introduction of sound two decades earlier. The sticking points, on a granular level, are the state of residuals income, the rise of “mini-rooms” and fears of displacement by artificial intelligence, among other issues. ( The Directors Guild this month agreed to a new three-year contract.) The already dim hope of a swift resolution between the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers has flickered out, and SAG-AFTRA, which represents actors, has authorized its own strike. Today marks 48 days into the first Hollywood writers’ strike of the streaming era, and by many accounts, the picture is bleak. I’m Matt Brennan, The Times’ deputy editor for entertainment and arts. "Now, we have the capacity to store that, while providing three tiers of backup protection and isolation with off-site and cloud-based copies.Good morning, and welcome to the Essential California newsletter. "Previously, we were backing up the minimum amount of data possible," says Jim Patrick, Infrastructure Architect at Butler University. Through Synology's license-free software, Butler is also able to back up as many devices as necessary without worrying about per-device licensing costs. Additionally, by leveraging the deduplication feature in Active Backup for Business, the university is able to back up 266 terabytes of data into just 84 terabytes of storage space, further expanding their long-term backup potential. With almost 900 terabytes of total storage capacity spread across three physical locations, their team is able to achieve a complete 3-2-1 backup strategy with ample storage headroom. With Synology, Butler University was able to save hundreds of hours per semester in operational overhead, cut down on monthly licensing costs, and increase total storage capacity, all while expanding the number of devices they backed up on campus. In case of data loss or a natural disaster at their main site, Butler can quickly perform a failover to the off-site unit and get services running without needing to wait for data to be transferred back to the main campus.įinally, the entirety of that off-site NAS is backed up to Synology C2 Storage, a cloud solution that integrates with their Synology hardware to provide a third tier of redundancy in Butler's backup strategy. Using Synology's Snapshot Replication software, Butler automatically generates intermittent snapshots of their on-campus backups and copies those snapshots to a second Synology NAS located off-site. The hardware is located separately from the school's data center for increased protection in case of a fire, flood, or natural disaster. The university's primary backup target for this data is a 12-bay Synology NAS with two expansion units totaling over 400 terabytes of storage capacity on campus. This tool allows the team to set up and monitor backup tasks, quickly restore lost data, and minimize downtime for critical systems. Using Synology's Active Backup for Business software, Butler centralized backup tasks for both their physical servers and over 250 virtual machines. To address their storage needs, Butler University's team chose a combination of Synology hardware, software, and cloud solutions to completely replace their tape backup system.
