VSP Partners With Wasabi For Cloud Storage.
VSP Partners With Wasabi – VSP is partnering with Wasabi on cloud storage for a range of video surveillance applications, including for Wasabi partners Axis, Milestone, Nx Witness and Vivotek.
“In the surveillance world, video storage needs are growing rapidly due to the proliferation of cameras, increased retention requirements, and higher resolution recordings,” said VSP’s managing director Zaki Wazir.
“Faced with expanding storage needs, leveraging on-site, centralized storage alone is simply inefficient – it’s becoming complex, inefficient and expensive.”
According to Wazir, Wasabi is on a mission to store the world’s data by making cloud storage simple, affordable, predictable, and secure.
“With Wasabi, organizations utilizing surveillance systems unlock the power of scale and offsite protection, while maintaining the freedom to use their data whenever they like without being hit with unpredictable fees or vendor lock-in,” Wazir said.
“Surveillance solutions from Wasabi remove the need to invest in expensive storage hardware upgrades or rip and replace your current on-premise VMS with an all-in-the-cloud solution. Instead, Wasabi’s cloud storage makes it easy to add-on bottomless storage to existing infrastructure, securely and affordably“.
“Wasabi’s surveillance solutions make it easy for organizations to cost-effectively scale and protect video storage capacity, whether the user’s video management system is cloud-enabled already or not.”
Wazir said that organizations in the surveillance space can take advantage of a hybrid-cloud model that allows users to offload video surveillance footage from their local storage environment directly to the cloud without ever running out of capacity.
“This bottomless approach to video storage is vital for the physical security industry which is currently struggling to manage enormous amounts of video in high resolution environments, increasingly large file sizes, stringent regulatory and retention requirements, and analytics applications tied to surveillance,” he explained.
With Wasabi’s cloud storage built for enterprise video surveillance deployments, there are multiple solutions for organizations looking to cloud storage in a simple and cost-effective way. Companies can easily extend the storage capacity of on-premises video management systems and protect valuable surveillance data.
“Wasabi Surveillance Cloud is an integrated solution, combining cloud bridge software with Wasabi’s hot cloud storage service. Users of every major video management system (VMS) can offload video surveillance data from their local storage environment to the Wasabi cloud with no changes to their existing operations.”
According to Wazir, Wasabi hot cloud storage is also the ideal storage target for video management systems already enabled with S3 cloud storage connectivity including the Nx Witness VMS.
“The physical security industry can now meet increased demand from growing camera counts, higher resolutions, and longer retention periods, while also ensuring their solution can scale affordably and securely with cloud storage purpose-built for video,” he said.
“Leveraging Wasabi’s cloud storage for video surveillance provides customers with benefits including increased resiliency, reduced risk, reduced cost and lower TCO, and the ability to ensure you’re never compromising on retention due to a lack of storage“.
“For surveillance integrators, leveraging Wasabi’s cloud storage results in fewer onsite visits, reduced labour costs, automated archiving of data, protection against natural disaster, theft, damage and ransomware, and instant access to data for recovery.”
