Front Porch Digital at the 2011 NAB Show announced the Archive Exchange Format (AXF), a generic encapsulation format for files of any type or size.

According to company Chief Technology Officer Brian Campanotti, Front Porch Digital is offering AXF to the industry as an open standard, which it hopes to see formalized by SMPTE.
