The project
We engineered and ran the media data pipeline for Kappa Futur Festival 2025. Using a hybrid storage stack-Synology NAS for collaboration and backups, high-speed DAS workstations for on-site editing, and a central SAN for shared online storage-we handled multi-camera ingest, checksum-verified copies, tiered backups, and rapid delivery to artists and the festival’s social media team. Across the 3 days we archived terabytes of footage and stills, guaranteeing reliability, access control, and fast turnarounds across multiple teams and network segments.
The challenge
At a festival with over 120,000 attendees, dozens of photographers and videographers were capturing content across 3 non-stop days. Without a proper system, files get lost, teams wait hours to access footage, and there is no guarantee that critical material is safely backed up.
Our solution
We designed and ran a complete on-site data infrastructure. Every photo and video was collected, organized, and backed up automatically. Different teams, artists, social media, production, could access exactly what they needed instantly, without getting in each other's way.
The result
Terabytes of material were managed without a single loss. Artists received their content quickly. The social media team could post in real time. Every team worked at full speed even at the most intense moments of the festival.
