ResourceSpace
Open-source digital asset management: catalog, search and share your media files.
ResourceSpace is an open-source, self-hosted digital asset management (DAM/MAM) system used by teams to organize, find, transform and share their media library. Ingest images, video, audio and documents, describe them with rich metadata, group them into collections, and control who can see and download what, all from a server you own.
Key features
- Central asset catalog with previews and automatic thumbnails for images, video and documents
- Powerful metadata, keywording and faceted search across your whole library
- Collections, resource requests and granular user/group access control
- On-the-fly downloads in multiple sizes and formats (ImageMagick, Ghostscript, FFmpeg, ExifTool bundled)
- Web admin for resource types, metadata fields, users and configuration
- Co-located MariaDB bundled inside the appliance, no external database to run
Use cases
- Brand and marketing teams managing a single source of truth for approved media
- Media, publishing and broadcast libraries cataloging large image and video archives
- Universities, museums and agencies sharing controlled asset collections
Why run it on the NetActuate edge Hosting ResourceSpace in a PoP near your users shortens the delivery path for large image and video downloads and previews, and keeps ownership of your assets, metadata and access policy with you.
Deployed from the NetActuate marketplace, ResourceSpace boots pre-configured from your seeded values: the web installer is run headlessly at first boot so the Super Admin account exists and the installer is already finished, and the database password is generated and persisted. Sign in at /login.php and start cataloging. Public sharing needs a real domain name and TLS termination in front of the appliance (a documented follow-up); the single-VM appliance serves the full web UI over HTTP on the instance IP out of the box.
Frequently asked questions
How do I deploy ResourceSpace on NetActuate?
Use the Deploy on NetActuate button to talk to our team. We provision ResourceSpace on a NetActuate virtual machine in the point of presence you choose, close to your audience. Each deployment runs in the single location you select.
What does it cost to run ResourceSpace?
ResourceSpace is open-source software and free to run on the marketplace - you pay only for the NetActuate compute (virtual-machine size and location) it runs on, at standard rates. There are no usage-based software fees.
Where can ResourceSpace run?
ResourceSpace can be deployed in any of NetActuate's 45+ points of presence across every continent, so you can place ingest, transcode, delivery and caching close to your contributors and viewers.
Who supports ResourceSpace?
NetActuate operates and supports the underlying infrastructure - the virtual machine, network and edge platform. The application itself is supported by its upstream open-source project.
