OnSafe SVG is a modular and scalable solution
for massive recording of IP video streams. Video and associated
information as audio and metadata from video codecs and analytic
devices, is taken in through Ethernet ports by unicast or
multicast and is stored in hard disk arrays. All that information
is also available to operators for playback or exported to
external devices as pen drives, DVD’s and similar media.
A complete network video recorder is build up with windows
based network storage server loaded with the onSafeSVG software.
In the usual format, the network
storage server consists on a windows 2003 based server
housed in a 3U cabinet using high availability hardware
(Dual core Xeon CPU, tray for 16 hot swap discs, SATA
ESII discs, sophisticated ventilation system with
multiple fans, 3 power supplies, double LAN connection
and disk controller interface with RAID support, etc.).
The main features of the SVG video
storage platform are the following:
- Storage and retrieval of native multi standard IP video
flows and related information issued by supported video
codecs and analytics devices.
-
Export of video files in native format or transcoded to commonly used formats as
AVI, FLV (Flash media player) or Windows Media Player.
-
Support for secure video export using public key cryptography technology, including
video encryption and digital signature.
- Recording of video marks to provide users with direct
access to recordings at the moment of specific events, thus
reducing tenfold the search for images. Marks within the
video include individual video analytics events and any
event generated in I/O contacts.
-
Advanced video search criteria based on system supported events.
-
Modular and scalar architecture that supports large scale installation with hundreds
of cameras and Petabytes (1.000Terabytes) of video
storage.
- High availability features: Video stream from one codec
can be sent to one network storage server and to a backup
unit in case of failure of the first one.
- Support of network storage server operational alarms
as disk or power supply failures, hard disks failures, etc.
