Joint Solution Helps Users Improve Security and Speed Time-to-Response at Correctional Facilities with Real-Time Video Surveillance Data Capture, Storage and Processing
CHICAGOÂ – ASIS International 2013 -
- DataDirect Networks (DDN) and Sierra Detention Systems are collaborating to deliver an integrated security controls system built on DDN's SFA® High Performance Storage Engine and Sierra Detention Systems' PSIM technology that will address the storage infrastructure scalability and real-time data capture needs of the physical security industry, today.
-Â Thousands of cameras and multiple petabytes of surveillance and sensor data are managed by Sierra's control system, which was designed to regulate person-flow, safety and security of individuals throughout high-security and correctional facilities, commercial buildings, data centers and public and private campuses.
-Â DDN SFA technology provides real-time bandwidth as well optimized delivery of low-latency access to spinning (HDD) and Flash (SSD) media - resulting in best-in-class IOPS performance. The result is a highly scalable, dense and energy efficient archive platform that is easy to setup and manage from within the interface, providing rapid access to surveillance and sensor data.
-Â The fully integrated DDN and Sierra Detention Systems solution provides a single pane view of the entire security environment, powered by DDN's highly resilient, scalable SFA storage architecture. When used together, the solution provides streaming of high-definition video to a single, high-density DDN system for real-time data capture and video archiving.
