CONTROL, SCALABILITY AND COST SAVINGS

The increasing implementation of surveillance systems worldwide, along with expanded usage of IP-cameras, higher quality video, and the move from analog to digital is prompting organizations to place more emphasis on video surveillance storage solutions and services to accommodate the explosion in surveillance data.

According to experts that monitor the industry, most organizations are using more than 200 cameras collecting video surveillance data, and a large percentage of those are recording non-stop, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

With such an increase in the number of cameras and the resulting explosion of raw video footage, organizations are feeling the pressure to find new ways to efficiently store and manage data assets while finding innovative ways to leverage them to improve everyday operations and the bottom line.

SOLVING THE VIDEO DATA MANAGEMENT CHALLENGE

Step one is managing the complex workflows of video surveillance storage systems. Security managers must factor into their management solution:

• Number of Cameras
• Camera Resolution
• Frame Rates
• Retention Periods
• Compliance Mandates
• Network Bandwidth
• Migration Policies
• Access Frequency
• Recovery Windows

Different businesses and government entities require different video data management solutions—from on-premise to fully cloud based, or a hybrid approach that combines the benefits of both models.

For organizations that do not have or do not want to provide internal equipment and resources, or that prefer not to deploy the required high speed network bandwidth to manage movement of large video files, a fully-managed hybrid solution provides the needed expertise as well as the end-to-end infrastructure.
