Veracity, the surveillance industry leader in IP transmission products and creator of COLDSTORE, the worlds only truly sequential filing storage system, has joined forces with Milestone Systems, a world leading provider of open platform IP video management software (VMS) to create COLDSTORE Arcus.

COLDSTORE Arcus will be in full presentation at ISC West 2014 and shipping to end users shortly thereafter.

“Our journey with the Veracity team has been truly intriguing their bold vision to challenge consensus by asking why you would need to power up more than two disks of a storage unit, is an excellent match to our ambition with Milestone Arcus™. We want to make things simpler, better and cheaper, no matter the camera count,” says Lars Nordenlund Friis, VP Incubation and Ventures at Milestone Systems. “You may ask why a lean video management software solution is such a good fit with a 15-bay storage device: with a lean processor, this combination is what you need for surveillance system installations requiring long retention time and very attractive initial costs and lifetime Total Cost of Ownership.”

Scott Sereboff, Veracity USAs CEO, stated: "We chose to partner with Milestone and the Arcus team because we believe that COLDSTORE Arcus is the perfect combination of products to challenge the status quo presented by most video management software companies. Partnering with Milestone allows us to deliver the COLDSTORE Arcus to a wide range of end users, and when coupled with Milestone Interconnect, allows Veracity to provide a truly customized solution that meets the specific needs of the user.?
