Applications

Education and Training
Avantis CD/DVD servers offer the ideal solution for sharing high bandwidth multimedia in secondary schools, colleges and training centres. OpenCD will support up to 50 concurrent video streams, allowing dozens of students to work on the same CD at the same time.

Libraries
Up to a 1,000 CDs can be stored and managed from a single location on your library network. Use Avantis CD/DVD servers to provide instant access to all your CD reference material, saving hours of research time.

E-Learning
The internet does not have the bandwidth to support true multimedia online learning. The Web-DVD format combines DVD quality video with real time content from the internet. Use Avantis CD/DVD servers to deliver Web-DVD e-learning throughout your organisation.

Law
With Avantis CD/DVD servers you can put legal publications at the fingertips of every lawyer in your practice simultaneously and minimise the cost of expensive legal software licences by controlling CD licence usage.

Healthcare and Medicine
From Computer Based Training to the Medline database, Avantis CD/DVD servers allow video training DVDs and medical data files to be shared securely amongst many hospital departments or medics at once.

Financial and Corporate
Large corporations require reliable and scalable storage solutions to manage their CD-ROM collections. OpenCD offers an enterprise level solution for organisations demanding 24/7 accessibility and full redundancy.
