Challenge
Harbor’s DNA has always been on the bleeding edge technology-wise, having always been ambitious in wanting to push out high-quality, technically challenging content and at the same time needing to deliver on tighter budgets and faster timelines. Because they were chasing commercial, feature and episodic work, all over the globe, they had to be able to get data home quickly and securely. Having a secure network with guaranteed bandwidth was mission-critical.
