Video Surveillance Management Platform SVMS Pro: Multi-Storage Solutions Elevate Data Security

In the era of digital transformation for security systems, data storage demands unprecedented levels of security, flexibility, and reliability. Addressing these needs, the video surveillance management platform SVMS Pro pioneers a versatile approach by supporting centralized local storage, long-term storage and S3 cloud storage. This tri-modal architecture establishes a comprehensive, multi-layered data management system, providing a robust data foundation for intelligent security scenarios.

**I. Scenario-Driven Storage Solutions

  1. Centralized local Storage: recording on local SVMSPro server directly.---Real-time response with secure control. **

Core Capabilities:
Deployed on local servers, SVMSPro ensures real-time writing and millisecond-level retrieval of video streams, alarm logs and other critical data. Its open 1+N stackable architecture allows unlimited expansion of recording storage servers. By adding subordinate servers (or disk groups including IPSAN/NAS) along with disk arrays and network bandwidth, users achieve extended recording recording durations while boosting storage performance --- all without compromising system stability during sustained operation, provided environmental requirements are met.
Centralized storage module based on Linux OS supports up to 200 channels front-end video per server, with N+1 stackable expansion capability. This distributed architecture enables clustered storage servers, allowing project scalability through additional subordinate storage modules—all without modifying existing deployments.

*Scenario Adaptation: *

  • The physically isolated network environment meets stringent data sovereignty requirements for government, financial, and other high-security sectors.
  • 24/7 real-time surveillance storage
  • Localized data retention for sensitive areas (e.g., secured facilities)

2.Long-Term Storage: High-Throughput Writing & Enduring Trustworthiness

Core Capabilities:
High-Efficiency Write Performance: Buffer layer resolves speed bottlenecks.
By establishing a high-speed buffer layer on local disks, the system temporarily absorbs high-concurrency write requests. Data is then seamlessly migrated to IPSAN disk arrays through asynchronous mechanisms. This architecture prevents I/O congestion caused by direct writes to disk cabinets, ensuring stutter-free, real-time 24/7 surveillance video ingestion. The local buffer accommodates burst traffic peaks (e.g., simultaneous alarm recordings from multiple cameras), effectively reducing backend storage pressure.

IPSAN disk cabinets support scale-out expansion, enabling linear increases in storage capacity and performance through node additions.

This buffer-layer-to-IPSAN architecture aligns with data lifecycles, automatically tiering cold data to high-density, low-power storage media.

Operational & Economic Benefits:
TCO Reduction: Prioritizes high-frequency data in the buffer layer while migrating low-frequency data to high-capacity IPSAN, boosting hardware utilization by 30%+.
Energy Efficiency: IPSAN’s disk hibernation technology cuts idle-period power consumption by 50%, advancing green data center initiatives

Scenario Adaptation:
Long-term evidence archiving for legal cases
Regulatory-compliant data retention (e.g., airports, metro surveillance)

*3.S3 Cloud Storage: Elastic Scalability & Intelligent Collaboration *

Core Capabilities:
*Deep Integration of the S3 Object Storage Protocol *
With deep integration of the S3 object storage protocol, SVMSPro seamlessly connects to major provider services like Alibaba Cloud OSS, Tencent Cloud COS, and Amazon Cloud – along with private object storage solutions based on S3 storage protocol. This delivers limitless capacity expansion, leveraging cloud elasticity to effortlessly handle petabyte-scale video growth.

Eliminating the need for physical servers, the platform directly utilizes cloud resources through pay-as-you-go models, significantly reducing hardware investments and operational costs.

Critically, it enables unified cloud aggregation of recordings from geographically dispersed branches, achieving efficient center-edge management. Whether deploying in smart campuses, retail chains, or energy/transportation networks, SVMSPro empowers enterprises to flexibly adopt public, private, or hybrid cloud architectures – truly realizing unified cloud-based security governance.

Dual-Backup & Intelligent Disaster Recovery

Dual Backup + Intelligent Disaster Recovery: "Dual Insurance" for Critical Data.
The value of security data comes with inherent risks. Once video footage is lost, it can lead to immeasurable losses. To address this, SVMSPro innovatively introduces a "Local + Cloud" dual-backup mechanism, leveraging S3 storage features to build multiple layers of security:

Real-Time Dual-Writing: Video recordings are first written to the local disk (acting as a cache buffer). Once locally persisted, the data is simultaneously replicated to cloud-based S3 storage, ensuring instant failover if either node fails.

Smart Hot/Cold Tiering: Frequently accessed "hot" data remains on local storage, while historical footage is automatically archived to low-cost cloud storage, optimizing storage expenses.

Cross-Regional Disaster Recovery: By utilizing multi-replica and cross-region replication features of carrier-grade S3 storage, the system inherently resists physical risks like earthquakes or fires.

Additionally, the platform ensures end-to-end data security through integrity verification and encrypted transmission, safeguarding data across the entire lifecycle—from storage and transmission to access.

Scenario Adaptation:
Cloud backup/disaster recovery for massive video archives
Centralized storage management on cloudy for multi-regional branches

*II. Multi-Storage Synergy: Fortifying the Data Security Moat *

SVMSPro’s flexible integration of centralized local storage, long-term storage and S3 cloud storage delivers precision-matched solutions for diverse security scenarios:

  • On centralized local storage Storage: Enables fully private, clustered deployments for barrier-free expansion and uncompromised data security.
  • Long-Term Storage: Combines local buffering with IPSAN to achieve zero frame loss under high concurrency and tamper-proof archival—meeting judicial standards for data integrity. It serves as the "ultimate vault" for high-stakes environments (government, finance, transportation).
  • S3 Cloud Storage: Unleashes global data value through limitless scalability, cross-region collaboration, and cloud-native disaster recovery, transitioning from mere "storage" to "data empowerment."

Whether deploying private on-centralized local storage, implementing forensic-grade retention for long-term compliance, or leveraging S3 cloud storage for seamless collaboration, SVMSPro consistently adheres to its core principle: "Scenario-Defined Storage, Security-Throughout-the-Chain".This empowers every piece of security data to be:

  • Stored with pinpoint accuracy,
  • Protected with comprehensive safeguards,
  • Accessed with optimal efficiency.

Ultimately, SVMSPro strengthens the data security moat for the digital security era.
