Earlier this month, BCDVideo attended ISC West in Las Vegas. One of the most popular topics of the show was BCDVideo’s certified hyperconverged solution (HCI-VS), a virtualized, video optimized, and highly available infrastructure. The argument for hyperconvergence for physical security - “The key to hyperconvergence and virtualization for the physical security market hinges on the effective utilization of resources."

"Regardless of the platform you run on, server resources are rarely used efficiently or to their full potential,” said Darren Giacomini, BCDVideo’s Director of Advanced Systems Architecture. "Leveraging virtualization and hyperconvergence allows integrators to not only better utilize bare-metal resources but also combine server resources for surveillance, access control, and building management while reducing the overall footprint of the solution,”  he said.
