A leading global media and entertainment company faced significant operational risk due to decades of legacy metadata locked away in outdated or obsolete archival systems. This fragmented data environment—resulting from system mergers, format deprecations and inconsistent documentation—prevented access to critical asset information including rights metadata, location history and historical records.
Without intervention, the company risked losing irreplaceable institutional knowledge, limiting rights validation, monetization and readiness for future system migrations. They needed a partner with expertise in digital asset management, data integration and archival intelligence to not only restore access, but also future-proof their archival ecosystem.
We partnered with the client to conduct a holistic assessment of legacy datasets across archival systems, identifying structure, quality and utility of critical metadata. From there, we designed and delivered a custom data visualization and access framework that brought dormant databases back to life through interactive, user-friendly dashboards.
Our solution included:
By blending archival science with advanced data engineering and UX principles, we helped the client not only restore but reimagine access to their most valuable legacy content.
Our partnership enabled the media organization to:
The result: improved operational efficiency, legal readiness and long-term archival sustainability. This engagement transformed legacy media data from a liability into a strategic asset, empowering the client to preserve its history while advancing its future.
