Pivot3, the technology leader of hyperconverged infrastructure solutions, announced a strategic original equipment manufacturer (OEM) relationship with Intelligent Security Systems (ISS), an innovator in the development of advanced video management and video analytics software. Under the agreement, ISS will license the Pivot3 hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) platform and integrate it with ISS video management software (VMS) to supply more robust security intelligence and video storage options to customers.

The addition of Pivot3 HCI solutions, which are optimized for the write-intensive demands of video surveillance workloads, is a natural complement to ISS video surveillance technologies. The ISS framework manages and monitors an unlimited number of cameras and devices, applies intelligent video analytics and integrates a variety of disparate systems into one centralized interface. This approach allows users to leverage video data to achieve new levels of security intelligence and situational awareness.

Through its partnership with Pivot3, ISS will provide tailor made solutions as well as enterprise-class video analytics in a scalable architecture that is easy to deploy and simple to manage. The platform’s architecture is optimized for IP video to prevent video loss and image quality degradation. Pivot3’s highly available software-defined storage technology ensures previously recorded video remains accessible even if entire appliances go offline. This extreme resiliency ensures critical data is protected and available for security, liability, business intelligence and risk management requirements. Additionally, systems can easily be expanded as needs grow without disrupting operations, while other applications, such as access control, visitor management and video analytics, can be consolidated on the Pivot3 system to further reduce costs and improve reliability.

“We are pleased to associate our name with Pivot3, which has redefined the video storage space over the past 10 years,” said Cody Flood, VP Sales, North America, ISS. “We see this partnership as an opportunity for both companies to deliver robust video surveillance infrastructures, allowing modern businesses to experience close integration of industry-leading applications.”

“This initiative is a strong complement to our existing channel strategy because it allows us to establish greater market presence across the globe,” said Brandon Reich, General Manager, Surveillance, Pivot3. “With ISS, we gain a strong partner within the surveillance industry that produces comprehensive video solutions and now provides the benefits of HCI to its growing global customer base.”

Intelligent Security Systems (“ISS”) is a leading developer of video management and video intelligence solutions. The video management platform, SecurOS™, is the nucleus of a complete Eco-System.
