Storage

As CCTV systems evolved, cameras and recorders evolved, giving way to digital technologies in video surveillance systems and since then the way of storing video was done in digital recorders (DVR) which mainly used HDD to store video of better resolutions and with higher image quality.

Technological advancement has pushed video surveillance systems to use network technologies, allowing high-quality camera images to be stored regardless of where these images come from on devices called network recorders (NVRs). This gives us the ability to store significant amounts of video in services that we now know as “the cloud”, an online service that does not require the physical installation of equipment in the same location as the security cameras and that is compatible with multiple brands of manufacturers. One of the most important advantages of the new video surveillance systems is the ability to access these images from any mobile or desktop device and from anywhere, using secure methods of accessing information, giving users peace of mind knowing that their information is well protected.
