The request comes in for video of an incident three weeks ago. The search returns nothing. A disk failed, or retention was set shorter than anyone realised, or the array filled and recording stopped quietly.
Nobody noticed, because storage only announces itself when it is already too late.
CATHEXIS is built to record reliably on supported storage platforms and to tell you when something is wrong.
What CATHEXIS storage integration delivers:
CATHEXIS supports network and on server storage and runs its own video database independently of third party database engines, with fault tolerance that keeps recording going when one or more disks fail. Critical video can be written to more than one database at the same time.
Tiered storage combines high performance Tier 1 storage with high capacity Tier 2 storage, with transfers scheduled outside peak hours. Operators do not need to know where footage lives, because retrieval is automatic across both tiers.
System health monitoring tracks storage, recording bitrates and throughput continuously, raising technical alarms and reports when behaviour changes, so problems surface while there is still time to fix them.
The result: footage that is there when you ask for it, and warning when it might not be.
