Organizations having multiple locations might need to consider subscribing to cloud video surveillance solution. On the bottom line, there are three key criteria to the cloud surveillance system: bandwith, storage and speed. Without the proper application of these, is like playing a guitar using fishing line as strings.
 
BETTER BANDWITH MANAGEMENT DETERMINES OPTIMIZATION
Videos are well-known to consume large data, and pushing a lot of videos over a business network can disrupt other businesses that equally matter. It is crucial to understand the importance of bandwidth for cloud surveillance. Some off¬ers the ability to store high-resolution video locally with remote access to view and manage the systems all from one website, while other solution gives you the ability to choose specific high resolution video to be uploaded to the cloud to reduce bandwidth requirement. Advanced cloud solutions have their own preference of video optimization for all connection speeds and o¬ffer data forming as well as bandwidth management, allowing control over exactly how much data is being delivered over a network to prevent a network overload.
 
BUY STORAGE AS YOU NEED
Using cloud to store video is quite expensive. Buying cloud surveillance on a per-camera, per-month basis may give you some edge, but understand exactly how much storage capacity you are buying. Storing low-resolution video is also an option to reduce storage requirements, but it also reduces the effectiveness. Determine what you require and subscribe accordingly to your business’s requirements.
 
SPEED MATTERS IN SURVEILLANCE
No amount of bandwidth and storage will help when you cannot view live or recorded video quickly or in an acceptable resolution. The speed of a cloud solution may be partially driven by the speed of its network, but it is mostly dictated by the quality of the software delivering your video. Advanced cloud solutions have software optimized to deliver reliable video over networks at any speed and change video delivery based on device.
