Head In The Clouds Or Feet On The Ground? Cloudview Launches Video IP Cloud Device

Posted by dtaitano 5:43 am Categories: Cloud. Tags: , , , , .

By Tom Reeve on March 5, 2014 The developers behind Jabbakam, the cloud-based online video surveillance and security system, have redeveloped and re-launched the product as a corporate-grade surveillance solution under the name Cloudview. I sat down with Cloudview founder James Wickes recently to find out why he thinks his solution will revolutionise the corporate security market. Jabbakam was developed in 2010 as a video management system to allow people to record CCTV surveillance video to an internet server and view the footage online. It also allows users to network IP cameras together and share the footage either privately or with a wider audience. The Jabbakam VMS works with its own brand cameras or a selected range of IP cameras from companies such as Y-Cam and Axis. Despite being designed primarily for the domestic market, Jabbakam attracted a great deal of interest from the corporate market, Wickes said. “On the basis of that, we developed Cloudview and changed the company name.” With Cloudview, the product is first and foremost an analogue camera solution. Using a Cloudview video network adapter (VNA), users can stream analogue cameras to the cloud storage system using automatic event triggers or manual activation. The VNA includes a built-in video encoder, SD card slot for local storage and network adapter as well as a USB slot for plugging in a wireless network adapter or 3G wifi device. Simples Wickes said that Jabbakam had taught him the importance of keeping things simple. “The key challenges highlighted through […]

Company Provides On-Demand Security & Operations Video Management AUSTIN, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–January 21, 2014– Eagle Eye Networks, Inc. formally introduced itself today as a provider of an on-demand security and operations video management system. In other news today, Eagle Eye also announced that its flagship product, the Eagle Eye Security Camera Video Management System (VMS), was released to the channel after 18 months of development and successful deployment with a large variety of customers. Eagle Eye Networks is delivering the benefits of the cloud to the video surveillance customer, such as on-demand deployment, centralized management, high reliability, and lower TCO. At the same time it eliminates historical obstacles to broad cloud deployment, such as security/privacy vulnerabilities and high bandwidth consumption. The VMS is compatible with most IP and analog cameras allowing maximum flexibility for customers and resellers. A 2013 survey of 283 IT security decision makers showed that 49% are involved in supporting or selecting video security/surveillance products. This illustrates the high overhead for installing, configuring, and maintaining the hardware and software needed for video surveillance systems. “I started Eagle Eye Networks to bring the compelling advantages of secure, on-demand, cloud based, video management and recording to customers,” said Dean Drako, President and CEO of Eagle Eye Networks. “Further I wanted to deliver an easy-to-use full […]

[H]ard|Forum Shorehn Gawd, 8.2 Years   Status:   1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc I just started my first job as a system administrator. We’ve got Linux servers and Macs in computer labs. I’d like to use this machine to try out KVM virtual machines for our servers, any CPU-intensive tasks I may eventually put on the servers, and possibly video editing software. (We’re looking at Linux and open source equivalents to stuff like Adobe due to budget cutbacks) 2) What’s your budget? Are tax and shipping included? The person I’m replacing claims that they’ll pay for anything "within reason" since they’re used to paying crazy prices for Macs. He said that I should have no trouble at all getting something around $800-1000. I’d like to keep it around that price so there’s enough money in the IT budget for other stuff. 3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible. Pittsburgh, PA. No Microcenter nearby 4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you’ll need. CPU, quiet HSF, motherboard, RAM, case, PSU, optical drive, hard disk (and/or SSD), hot swap bay, thermal paste. 5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model. Keyboard, mouse, monitor, and […]

Frost & Sullivan: Rapid Indian Infrastructure Expansion To Accelerate Adoption of Video Surveillance-as-a-Service Solutions

Posted by dtaitano 6:57 pm Categories: Cloud, Surveillance. Tags: , , .

Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Wednesday, December 18, 2013 — (Business Wire India) As services have only just begun to roll out, the video surveillance-as-a-service (VSaaS) market in India is still at a nascent stage. Nevertheless, the deployment of cloud-based models, Government efforts to improve IT infrastructure, and rising awareness on the benefits of robust surveillance solutions will spur implementation of VSaaS. Considering the critical nature of providing video surveillance services, cementing the first mover advantage in this market is crucial for market participants. New analysis from Frost & Sullivan ( http://www.electronics.frost.com ), Strategic Analysis of Video Surveillance-as-a-Service Market in India , finds that while there were only 20,898 camera sites which could have been serviced by VSaaS solutions in 2012, the addressable market for VSaaS will rise steeply post 2016 due to government policies on electronics coming to fruition and the completion of several infrastructure projects to reach 441,742 units in 2018. “Increased infrastructure spending and the projected growth of multi-brand retail will fuel the VSaaS market in India. The cost and business benefits for end users, including better streamlined surveillance expenditure for enterprises, will further boost VSaaS popularity in the country” said Frost & Sullivan Analyst. Moreover, the transition to more efficient video compression technologies will enhance the value for customers and encourage VSaaS usage. The availability of robust bandwidth, along with storage will become key differentiators for the market. However, low penetration of broadband in India and relatively slow uptake of video surveillance will pose a challenge to […]
