“With the video surveillance market projected to grow to nearly $90 billion by 2026, customers need a simple solution that can manage video data assets and scale affordably,” said Jerome Wendt, President, and Founder, DCIG, adding “StorMagic ARQvault’s low cost and complete VMS offering gives enterprises a robust way to deploy and manage their video digital assets regardless of where they reside.”
The report dives into the advantages of and differences between Quantum VS-HCI Series/Pivot3 and StorMagic ARQvault video surveillance solutions.
Reducing storage costs
ARQvault’s key advantage is that it includes a complete video management system (VMS), which can store video on any disk storage type —including the Quantum VS-HCI Series/Pivot3 offering—or on lower cost tiers, such as tape, optical or cloud.
“Applications like video surveillance are creating massive amounts of digital assets, particularly at the edge. While there is tremendous value in this data, it typically requires expensive disk storage, so as more data is created, it becomes cost-prohibitive to store,” said Bruce Kornfeld, Chief Marketing and Product Officer, StorMagic.
He adds, “ARQvault eliminates vendor lock-in, and its scalability and automated tiering optimise performance and reduce storage costs by at least 50 percent. One key StorMagic advantage over Quantum is that it includes its own VMS software solution, which provides complete surveillance capabilities and saves customers significant costs over time.”
