France Télévisions

On March 12, 2020, France went into lockdown, sending the France Télévisions team home during the global pandemic, affecting programming and its news flow. Within four weeks, France Télévisions was able to return to full schedule after implementing Dalet Galaxy xCloud, a remote workflow solution geared specifically toward newsrooms.

The Challenge

When the French government imposed a nationwide lockdown in March 2020 and most staff were sent home, France Télévisions had no direct access to their systems. Introducing a new collaboration paradigm to stay on air was a suddenly-urgent challenge. Like many companies, France Télévisions had dipped its toe in the waters of cloud computing, treating it more as an experiment to be conducted at arm’s length from critical newsroom functions. But when the world changed, the company – like many of its peers – faced a critical point.

The Solution

A pivotal part of the solution was Dalet Galaxy xCloud, a remote workflow solution geared specifically toward newsrooms. Integrated with Adobe Premiere Pro editing tools and running on Amazon Web Services, Dalet Galaxy xCloud gave the power to collaborate back to France Télévisions staff so quickly that the company was back to full operational strength in only one month.
