Pixamba is now featured on Amazon AWS web site

August 2nd, 2010 — 5:34pm

Pixamba is now featured on Amazon Web Services web site as a case study showing how we built a high-end yet cost effective solution for online media management services for designers and creative professionals.

Pixamba is a business software development and media services company providing solutions for the international stock photography and microstock market. After introducing its first product for microstock contributors, the ProStockMaster desktop software solution in 2006, the company recently launched its innovative cloud computing based stock imagery and microstock platform, called Pixamba Media Management. A Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution running entirely on Amazon Web Services (AWS), this digital asset management service is designed to help photographers and videographers efficiently sell photos and video through multiple microstock and traditional stock photography agencies, and help the designers and creatives in managing their archives of licensed stock images and video.

AWS enables Pixamba to run its digital asset management solution on a reliable and highly available infrastructure at an affordable cost. When asked why Pixamaba selected AWS, David Mail, CEO of Pixamaba, explains, “AWS looks to us to be a solid mature yet flexible platform allowing us to run as many cloud-based instances as we need and store a large volume of data at very affordable prices. AWS’s intuitive interfaces and the entire system reliability allow us to focus on our business solution instead of taking care of physical hardware, communication lines and IT personnel.”

  • Centralized digital media storage and management accessible from anywhere 24×7

Robert Walters, CEO of PantherMedia, comments on this new Pixamba media management service for designers, creatives and art directors: “We are always looking at ways to add value to our service. With Pixamba, we now help to maximize our customer’s investment in their image archives. Our customers can now find their existing images and easily license additional imagery, which is delivered to their accounts automatically, hence saving valuable time and money.”

David Mail, CEO of Pixamba added: “PantherMedia is our long-term valued partner and the first microstock agency to offer our innovative media management for the stock photography consumers. Since the launch of our new digital assets management platform, we have received an overwhelmingly positive market response from end users and are now partnering with stock photo agencies worldwide providing a complimentary highly demanded service to their customers.”

May 21st, 2010 — 12:47pm
By Simon Mackie, May 20 2010, WebWorkerDaily

Pixamba is more than just a tool for storing and searching though your images, though — it can also be used to keep track of when and how each image was used, versions of each image, and to get up-to-date status of legal rights for further uses.
