Tendril is a design, animation, and VFX Studio based in Toronto, Canada working with a wide variety of software including Adobe Creative Cloud, Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya and Flame. For a number of years, like many other post production shops, they had grown “organically”. The storage infrastructure consisted of multiple data servers, with users connected via 1 GB for almost 50 users and growing.
Partner Patrick Coffey started researching shared storage options and approached Jump I.T. to see what solutions best fit their needs. It was clear that a server would need to perform flawless under demanding workloads as Tendril moved to 6 and 7 day work weeks to meet the client demands. Product stability and support were a must.
