Segue Technologies, a developer of IT systems, has announced that it is leading a system integration effort to support the Media Research Center as it modernizes its digital video recording and archival system.

According to Segue, it will provide the Media Research Center (MRC) a system that integrates SnapStream DVRs with an EMC storage and information lifecycle management system. This system is expected to bring search capability to the MRC media archive, which includes over 20 years of broadcast television and other media.

Ron Novak, executive vice president of Segue, said: This is one of the most interesting and unique projects that Segue has undertaken. We are excited about revolutionizing the way MRC records and stores broadcast media. This effort will result in creating one of the largest and most sophisticated television monitoring operations in the nation. The SnapStream technology that we are integrating into this project is ideally suited for MRC and will keep them on the cutting edge of their mission.

Media Research Center, headquartered in Alexandria Virginia, provides checks and balances on the public press through the implementation of the comprehensive media monitoring operation.

Earlier in November, Segue Technologies has won a contract to support the Marine Corps Network Operations and Security Center (MCNOSC) Network Operations.
