Wasabi Surveillance Cloud for Offloading Video Surveillance Footage Introduced

Storing video files can quickly eat through storage capacity, especially for high-resolution environments. The impact on local storage can be overwhelming just trying to manage the ever-increasing amount of video captured today. Wasabi Technologies have introduced Wasabi Surveillance Cloud, the first-of-its-kind solution to enable organizations to offload video surveillance footage directly from the local storage environment to the cloud without running out of capacity.

Storing video files can quickly eat through storage capacity, especially for high-resolution environments. The impact on local storage can be overwhelming just trying to manage the ever-increasing amount of video captured today. Wasabi Technologies have introduced Wasabi Surveillance Cloud, the first-of-its-kind solution to enable organizations to offload video surveillance footage directly from the local storage environment to the cloud without running out of capacity.

The surveillance industry has struggled with managing the growth in high-resolution video content contending with massive file sizes, regulatory and retention requirements, and business and analytics applications tied to surveillance. The Wasabi Surveillance Cloud’s “bottomless” approach to video storage is vital for the industry as the increasing number of enterprises expect their video storage to increase over the next three years, according to a 2022 IDC Video Surveillance Survey. However, the cost of updating an existing technology stack to meet the demands is simply prohibitive.

Wasabi Surveillance Cloud has addressed these challenges head-on, creating a seamless hybrid storage environment that preserves current on-site technology investments, maximizing ROI without sacrificing any of the benefits. All major video management system (VMS) users can offload infrequently accessed video from on-site servers directly to Wasabi hot cloud storage.

Wasabi contends it is much more affordable than cloud vendors like AWS S3, Google, or Microsoft Azure, thanks to no egress or API requests fees. Video data is kept ‘hot,’ keeping it available and retrievable within milliseconds. With Wasabi Surveillance Cloud, a once-siloed VMS technology becomes cloud-aware, providing a simple and seamless transition to utilizing cloud storage.
