How IRC shares content from conflict zones with Stroj

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) used Storj (alongside LucidLink and Iconik) to overhaul their media-sharing pipeline. Instead of relying on a centralized server in New York with slow hard-drive transfers — which made it difficult for editors around the world to access footage from conflict zones — they adopted Storj’s globally distributed storage to enable instant, secure access to full-resolution assets from anywhere. The result: editors and partners across continents can upload, download, and collaborate on critical footage without lag or redundant transfers — speeding up content delivery for crisis reporting and humanitarian response.

In this case study, you’ll learn:

• How moving beyond a single-location server solved IRC’s global access bottleneck.
• How IRC stopped shipping hard-drives to remote editors.
• How IRC dramatically reduced delays in crisis-zone media delivery.
