Synectics releases a new ‘tech note’ exploring the benefits of cloud storage for enhancing security and surveillance operations.

The guide focuses on hybrid cloud surveillance solutions which deliver maximum flexibility, allowing users to record, process, manage and store video and operational data on site, carry out these actions directly to the cloud, or seamlessly use a mix of both.

Adopting cloud storage

David Aindow, Business Development Director at Synectics, said: “Harnessing cloud management and storage capabilities opens many doors when it comes to optimizing security, surveillance and operational control set ups.”

The tech note also covers common questions around areas such as cyber security

As well as allowing organizations to easily scale and flex their storage requirements, cloud storage solutions present new opportunities in terms of analytics, collaborative working, and secure data sharing. This resource is designed to help organizations explore and understand all these options in more detail.” In addition to looking at the core benefits of adopting cloud storage, the tech note also covers common questions around areas such as cyber security, guarding against network outages and data loss, and optimizing bandwidth without impacting frame rate.

Cloud storage solutions

The tech note is part of a wider program of educational activity, including a dedicated webinar on cloud storage in partnership with CCTV User Group. Taking place on Thursday 21st October at 2.30 pm, the ‘Cloud Storage Explained’ webinar will include a run-down of different cloud storage solutions and a Q&A session to help those attending select the best options for their specific requirements.

David added: “We know from our customers that cloud capabilities deliver huge potential for improved security and operational management - our program of activity around this topic aims to give any organization considering cloud the facts they need to decide on the best route forward.”
