What is video management? Once you’ve got your IP cameras up and running video management is an important tool to properly manage, record, store, and view video.
Not much happens in the majority of recorded video – you need a smart system to control this so you don’t consume too much of your time, bandwidth and storage space.
Depending on the size of your IP surveillance system there a couple systems to choose from.
There are two main types of video management hardware platforms:
-NVR
-PC Server
The size of your surveillance system and whether or not you’ll need to add on to it in the future will determine which hardware platform is best for you. NVR platforms are self-contained, stand alone units that are simple to install but have some usability and expandability limitations.
PC servers on the other hand are a bit more difficult to set up and are best left to your IT department if you have one. But they offer unlimited customization and scalability.
There is more to video management than just the hardware. Next up I’ll talk about the software platform choices you have to manage your IP surveillance video.
