[Project Parking](https://marquisbroadcast.com/products/avid-storage-management/project-parking) enables archiving of Avid Media Composer projects and media to Wasabi storage. Project Parking understands the relationship between the Avid projects and media files, allowing it to identify exactly what is used within a project, or even individual bins within a project. Users can then set the application to create archives of their projects, either individually or as recurring scheduled actions. Users can then restore either complete projects or a selection of bins back into their systems when required. ***Note:*** *The data restoration process is handled by your specific backup software application. As there are many potential variables that will affect your unique environment, it is strongly recommended that you seek the guidance of your backup software’s technical support team in the event that you encounter difficulty or have application-specific inquiries.* ## **1.
