Designed to cover for hybrid scenarios and multi-site systems, VidiCore Server Agent creates a secure gateway between your media files stored on-premise and your VidiCore instance on VidiNet. The connection between VSA and the VidiCore then allows one to manage, analyze, transcode, and conform the assets while these remain on-premise. VSA essentially consists of Vidispine´s own VidiCoder transcoder, a supervisor for connecting and monitoring the filesystem, and a storage handler tasked with enabling one to manage and transcode local files as well as transferring these to and from your cloud storages. This is made possible by enabling a sync between VidiCore and filesystem and generating proxy or mezzanine copies. When it comes to reliability and the scalability, several VSAs can be set up to serve a shared file system, in order accommodate increased demand for transcoding and redundancy.

Thanks to VidiCoder, all basic media formats are supported when transcoding through VSA, with pro formats available on request. VSA is available for Ubuntu. VSA requires outbound internet access on port 443.
