Case notes.

Situation → approach → resolution. One example is delivered work, anonymized; two are typical engagements — a description of how we handle them, not delivered work. Each example carries its label, with no names and no numbers.

Case notes.

Creative studio · delivered work

A studio with huge files

Situation
A creative studio works with large files: everyone has access to everything, the archive is scattered, and nobody has proven the backup with a restore.
Approach
A review of the NAS, folder structure and rights — no changes. Then a project structure with per-team access; MIODATA designed the backup architecture, and we monitor it daily.
Resolution
Files are seen by the right people, the archive has order, and the backup is known to restore — a test restore was performed and recorded. We still administer the studio.

Typical engagement · how we handle it

A company with no internal IT

Situation
Nobody owns IT: whoever is free handles the breakdown, nobody checks the backup, and nothing says how anything was set up.
Approach
Takeover starts with an inventory and documentation, without a single change. Then a help desk as the one place to report to, servers and backup under monitoring, and a test restore.
Resolution
One owner for IT and one address for everything; a backup proven by a test restore; a monthly report management can read. This describes our procedure, not delivered work.

Typical engagement · how we handle it

The render dies on the last frame

Situation
Batch renders stop without a clear cause, a node is up but jobs won’t start, and the farm sits unused after hours.
Approach
A no-change review of the farm: software and plugin versions per node, Deadline pools and priorities, asset paths, the license server. Then version alignment and a night queue.
Resolution
The same versions on every node, jobs scheduled by deadline, and a farm that actually works overnight — with a version list that is kept up to date. This describes our procedure, not delivered work.

AI and software examples live on the MOYAGRID site; infrastructure and security examples on the MIODATA site.

Start with an IT health check.

We look at your systems — servers, backup, network or the farm — and write a concrete assessment: what’s fragile, what’s slowing you down and what’s worth fixing first. The review changes nothing, and the report stays yours even if we don’t continue.
