What is (VMS) IP Video Management Software? Dell Forum 2011 The core functionality of the ideal IP video management system should include the following: Simultaneously manage IP cameras and analog cameras together to capture live video. Perform basic video processing like motion detection Start recording in response to triggers such as: Motion detection Doors opening A response to rules in the software interface Remote access that allows users in different parts of a building to see live camera views with complete control Integrate with third-party systems like access control and video analytics. For example, when a person enters a building, an access control system could trigger the video management system to verify that the image of the person captured from video matches the ID card/system. The ability to search the video archive database (by area of interest or time period) and create a secure export of material evidence to pass on to police or other authorities.

Block Example Dell Forum 2011 Capacity Planning Camera Allocations to specific volumes Volume based block storage solutions: Allocate # of cameras that fit retention time Example of calculation use case of 150 cameras Given 3 Mbit/sec (1280x720 at about 15 frames/sec) 30 day retention time requirement 15 TB volumes About 15 cameras per volume at 1TB/camera/30days Total minimum usable storage about 150TB Format Lettered drive to large block IO (64K) Spread workload across 2+ servers 75 cameras per server per camera 3 Mbits/sec 0.375 MB/sec 22.5 MB/min 1350 MB/hour 32400 MB/day 32.4 GB/day 226.8 GB/7 day 0.95 TB/30day
NAS File based example Dell Forum 2011 Capacity Planning Camera Allocations to single file system May create folders to segregate sets of cameras Example of calculation 1000 camera system Given 3 Mbit/sec (1280x720 at about 15 frames/sec) 30 day retention time requirement About 1 PB of storage About 100 cameras per server at 1TB/camera/30days Spread workload across 10+ servers 100 cameras per server per camera 3 Mbits/sec 0.375 MB/sec 22.5 MB/min 1350 MB/hour 32400 MB/day 32.4 GB/day 226.8 GB/7 day 0.95 TB/30day * your allocations may vary based on server performance and other system considerations
Recommended Recording Architecture (Milestone Example) Primary Archive Dell Forum 2011 Primary Database should house 4 hours to 3 days of recording High performance storage drives and arrays (ex: SAS drives configured for RAID 10) Archive process should run with frequencies from once per hour to once per day 2 to 3 times the usable capacity of what is required for the live database Archive Database - Total capacity defined by video retention requirements NL-SAS high density drives and configurations for long term storage and lower cost Frame rate and % of motion in the environment will affect archive design For this use case Primary Database record to local server, DAS or SAN-block and then archive to file for longer term retention this archive step allows potential data reduction processes to be applied reducing total storage requirements.
Dell Forum 2011 Multi-stage archiving data reduction and grooming Reduce Frame Rate or motion detection Do you need full 25 or 30 frame rate? Can you record on motion or other triggers for some cameras Grooming - method to decrease the frame rate of the recorded video over time in order to save space in the storage system while still keeping a record of what has happened Typical argument for using grooming is: The older the video is less critical since important items are typically discovered and investigated quickly NET = Less Required
