Unified access to all storage, real time editorial workflows and the bridge from cloud ingest to creative tools
LucidLink today announced its programme for MPTS 2026, where it will exhibit at Stand M59 at Olympia London, 13 to 14 May. The company will showcase its latest innovations in cloud file streaming, including LucidLink Connect, alongside key capabilities introduced at NAB, with live demonstrations and industry sessions across the show.
“Media organizations need to move faster without re-engineering their entire infrastructure,” said Rupert Watson, Vice President of GTM, EMEA, LucidLink. “At MPTS, we are showing how teams can unify access across all their storage and work with content in real time, whether it’s live ingest, archive or production, without migration, duplication or delay.”
LucidLink Connect Access Without Migration
LucidLink Connect enables teams to access and stream content directly from existing storage environments, including S3 compatible object storage, Adobe Frame.io, Google Drive, Dropbox and SharePoint, without migration or duplication. Content remains in place while teams access it through a unified LucidLink filespace. For customers looking to leverage LucidLink Connect with existing data in AWS and AWS S3, it’s available in AWS Marketplace.
For broadcasters and production teams, this brings live ingest, deep archive and production content into a single workspace.
Bridging the Gap Between Cloud Ingest and Creative Workflows with TAMS
TAMS (time addressable media store) is moving from research to real world deployment, changing how media is ingested and stored. But while ingest becomes cloud native, most creative tools still depend on file-based access.
This creates a critical gap between ingest and edit.
LucidLink Connect closes that gap. By attaching directly to TAMS-managed object storage and presenting it as a standard filespace, editors can open and work with growing media in real time using Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid Media Composer and DaVinci Resolve, with no transfers, no proxies and no workflow changes.
This enables teams to adopt TAMS without disrupting how content is actually created.
LucidLink will explore this further during the session “TAMS in Practice Adoption Challenges and What Comes Next” at MPTS, examining how broadcasters are addressing the disconnect between cloud ingest infrastructure and downstream creative workflows.
Live Demonstrations on the LucidLink Stand
At MPTS, LucidLink will showcase a full range of capabilities introduced at NAB Show in April, demonstrating how modern media workflows can be built without moving data.
Visitors to Stand M59 will experience:
- LucidLink Connect unifying access across cloud and on premise storage
- Real time workflows bridging cloud ingest and editorial tools
- TeamCache, delivering cloud performance at local network speeds
- The LucidLink Developer Platform, including APIs and SDK for unique enterprise, automation, integration and AI use cases.
Together, these capabilities demonstrate how organizations can connect distributed storage, streamline workflows and enable instant collaboration at scale.
