LTO archive system which enables integration with various IP cameras
Summary
Needs for large amounts of recording video data and long-term storage are increasing.And used for
not only security, but also marketing information.
Needs for sharper and longer-term storage are rapidly increased due to the recent incidents, etc.
On top of conventional use for security, value added use in marketing field such as analysis of
customer's flow line, etc. has been increasing.
Along with increase in capacity (higher resolution) and long-term storage, various issues occur when
operated only by HDD/NAS such as risk of malfunction, increase in initial investment/running cost, and
difficulty in handling system configuration change flexibly.
Features
Large capacity / long-term storage solution by using LTO tape Enables unlimited archive by
replacing tape cartridges
File base recording video archive system
Archive to LTO tapes which are the large capacity and ideal for long-term storage
Both entry model with LTO single drive and middle range model with tape library ideal for large amounts
of data archive are available
Graphical interface with simple & easy to use
Retrieve the archived data by restore function
Advantages
Reduction of initial investment & running cost
Large capacity HDD/NAS which cover the whole retention period are not required because the recording
video data are archived to LTO tapes
No power consumption is required for full LTO tapes because they can be stored & managed at the shelf
Storage space becomes much less because LTO tape is very compact & large capacity.
Enables to handle system change flexibly
When number of camera, resolution, and retention period are increased, enables to handle them with only
frequency of replacing LTO tapes without system change
Enables reduction of frequency of replacing LTO tapes by using tape library
Easy search by off-line management
Off-line search function enables data search even if LTO tape is not loaded in the LTO drive
Enables data search by a name of camera, shooting date, etc.
Enables restoration from the search result to HDD, etc. and output of a list of the search result
Example of introduction
Realizes the effective archive with LTO tapes in the following scenes that require for long-term storage
Video data for trace by the camera at a factory / production site
Video data of an operation in a hospital
Video data in a bank/ATM
Call logs and video data with customers at a call center
System lineup
Entry model
Ideal model for small start with an archive server and LTO single drive
Ideal for the case with the small number of cameras and long-term storage of small amounts of data
Middle range model
Rack mount model which does not require the operation of an archive server and LTO tape library
Ideal for the case with the large number of cameras and super high resolution, etc.
When the capacity of the loaded LTO tape becomes full, it automatically conveys the next LTO tape and continues processing
Module expansion of tape library allows more data archiving
Model for Search/Reference
Dedicated model for search without archive function
By linking the archive server and the data for off-line management, you can search and play back data without logging in to the archive server
