On the Ground at NAB 2023: No Matter the Use Case, You Need HP Anyware

At the 2023 NAB Show Centennial, HP Anyware showcased our long-ranging partner portfolio in the Broadcasting and Media & Entertainment industries. HP Anyware, which is based on pioneering PC-over-IP (PCoIP^®) technology, was highlighted at the event, once again proving to be the technology of choice in the broadcasting and M&E spaces. 

HP Anyware was widely featured in several booths by HP resellers and OEMs. Demonstrations and interviews with HP Anyware’s team illustrated how our digital workspaces software is an essential part of almost every type of remote and hybrid workflow. 

Sneh Prabha, Partner Marketing Manager, HP Anyware, was at NAB 2023, covering demos and interviews at the various booths. 

Edit wherever you are with HP Anyware

HP Anyware was a major draw at the Z by HP booth, showcasing how M&E users can edit in the office, at home, and on the move. The HP Anyware team was on-site to demonstrate the power of Z by HP PCs and how HP Anyware can deliver lossless quality, color accuracy and text clarity on numerous types of network connection. 

At the booth, we ran two HP Anyware demonstrations addressing remote editing needs. Users were shown how to overlay engaging motion graphics and titles using Adobe Creative Cloud and Avid applications with Anyware. In one demo, attendees were able to interact with the HP ZBook Studio G9 Mobile Workstation PC to connect remotely via HP Anyware to a HP Z2 Mini G9 Workstation Desktop PC. On the second demo, an HP Pro t550 Thin Client connected through Anyware to a remotely located HP ZCentral 4R Workstation Desktop PC.  

Visitors to the Microsoft booth learned how high-performance remote studio production works with HP Anyware and Microsoft Azure. Users can securely log into the Azure cloud with HP Anyware and work seamlessly on editing workflows that use graphics-intensive applications from wherever they are. HP Anyware was used for demos in the Avid, Evercast and Lumen Technologies pods at Microsoft booth.  

Advancing the hybrid way for broadcasting and M&E with HP Anyware

AMD and HP Anyware showcased how creatives working on graphics-intensive workloads can continue to work seamlessly from wherever they work best. In this demonstration, an HP T740 thin client leveraging AMD technology and HP Anyware were used to connect to a remotely hosted HPE ProLiant DL385 server powered by AMD EPYC 7000 Series Processors to edit video. HPE also highlighted its broadcast-as-a-service solution, a turnkey Collaborative, Cloud-Based Control Room for Citizen Television solution that leverages the performance and security of HP Anyware.  

Broadcasting can be a success even in a remote environment! At the Hammerspace booth, visitors were given a first-hand demonstration of the Autodesk Flame finishing software and DaVinci Resolve color grading software hosted in the AWS cloud and accessing data using the Hammerspace data orchestration solution.

Users get superb performance with HP Anyware integrations 

Whether artists, editors or broadcasters are working from a Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) or 5G edge technology, HP Anyware delivers flexibility, productivity and performance.

Over at the Black Box booth, visitors were treated to a demonstration of how users can not only view but also interact with up to 16 physical or virtual systems simultaneously using Emerald^® DESKVUE, a KVM-over-IP solution. The Black Box^® Emerald DESKVUE leverages secure PCoIP technology that powers HP Anyware to connect to remotely hosted workspaces.

At the NAB theater, John McVay, Head of Teradici Strategic Alliances, spoke to Steve Walter, Global Marketing Lead – Sports, Media, Entertainment & Technology at Verizon, about how Verizon 5G Edge and HP Anyware work together.

And at the Verizon booth, the HP Anyware team showcased how the solution and Verizon 5G Edge Editor with AWS Wavelength enables remote editing and production for workloads that are graphics intensive and required low latency. 

HP Anyware continues to pave the hybrid way for broadcasting and M&E
