Storage and retrieval solutions for the Surveillance World
Video surveillance solutions are generating ever increasing amounts of data from static and mobile solutions deployed across multiple and large-scale sites.
There is a pressing need for measures to be put in place to facilitate the rapid and effective retrieval of this data to
meet evidential and legislative requirements.
This session looks at the storage and archive management issues and presents possible solutions

Why is storage and archive management important for Surveillance Applications?
4.5 Million Cameras +

Surveillance Solutions typically have distributed storage at the edge of the network
Distributed server and recording at the edge preferred Predicated on the fact that 90% cameras are analogue Many IP / NVR solutions are totally network dependent
and reliant - many cities and businesses don't have the bandwidth for constant video streaming
Distributed architecture allows fail safe continuous recording with on-demand access to all parts of the system

SNMP Monitoring in Surveillance Applications
• Allows Network managers to monitor all the security devices connected to their network
• Surveillance products now have built in MIBs (blocks of information) that the Network manager can monitor with their preferred tools.
• We have packaged Cacti with the necessary information to monitor the MIBs in our devices.
• Monitors network traffic, codec loading, memory usage

Summary
• Surveillance has a unique set of requirements when it comes to data management
• 24 hour requirement, video recording and streaming• Cameras and devices are deployed across fixed and
mobile assets• Distributed architecture enables fail-safe recording• Central storage and archive management is important as
a back up and for fast event retrieval across multiple devices
• Health monitoring essential to ensure max. uptime, particularly in transport
• All ensures effective use of video for security and surveillance purposes
