Hi [H]
My company is in search for a solution in video footage archiving, What kind of solutions do you guys use with your current companies As per our contract we have to make Surveillance footage available to the city as requested up to 1 year.. Are current DVR Surveillance set up holds up to 6 Months Max thats with 2 TB. We have a total of four locations thats about 8 TB in Six months so max in one year we will need about 16-18 TB Drives for the whole year Ouch !!! Im thinking a big file server with at least 20 TB just to be in the safe side Impossible?
So here are my questions
1. What O.S Distro would i need to run
2. What Hardware will i need to run for this set up ?
2. Budget We dont have one it's mandatory per contract
3. Once we have our footage archive how would we even retrieve that data lets say City wants footage on a certain date certain time?
Would i have to run a emulator of our current software to retrieve specific dates ?
I dont think we are necessarily looking for a backup solution we are just looking to storing the files for a year one's the year passes then we will just delete footage and restart all over again with current Video Footage
What will be the Best solution for us.
Thanks guys in advance
