This invention relates to video surveillance management solutions. More specifically this invention relates to the integration of multiple tiers of dissimilar computer data storage technologies in such a manner to deliver longer term video retention and easy video playback. The device captures video data from multiple surveillance cameras and stores it on computer hard drive and then replicates to a second tier of digital data tape storage. Video retention policies are determined from parameters for the number of cameras, frame rates, resolution, and number of days of video retention desired. Storage procedures are set for multiple tiers of video storage that will allow for the highest quality video to be recorded without alteration or manipulation. A human video operator will then have the ability to select any available recorded video under management and have that video retrieved and available for display and playback without any additional steps or human interaction.
A method with the underlying computer program for an overarching video surveillance management platform encompassing of a video management software (VMS) program, integrated with middleware software, all of which actively ingests, records, and stores video data to multiple tiers of video data storage, manages the movement of recorded video data amongst the various tiers of storage, all for the purpose of unimpeded video playback of any available recorded video by a human video operator.
A system of integrating computer hardware devices comprising of a standard computer server, with appropriate computer memory storage, NVMe flash storage module, traditional hard disk data storage, and digital data tape storage such as Linear Tape Open (LTO) or T10000 format in such a manner to facilitate the moving of data through multiple tiers of data storage.
A method with the underlying computer program (middleware) that manages the various interactions between the base VMS software and that of the associated storage hardware devices.
