PROJECT OVERVIEW
What Terapixels was asked to address.
Terapixels evaluated an environment with approximately 330 existing cameras, roughly 100 proposed additions, nine servers and approximately 900 TB of storage, with a long-range target approaching 1,000 cameras. The planning focus was system capacity, growth, storage, infrastructure and operational manageability.
PROJECT SCOPE
The technology layers included.
Server and storage
Nine-server and large-retention environment evaluated as one architecture.
Network dependencies
Switching, uplinks, segmentation and equipment-room capacity tied to expansion.
Operational scale
Licensing, health monitoring, naming, permissions and investigation workflow considered.
DESIGN LESSONS
What mattered most in the project.
Design for staged growth
Near-term additions should not force avoidable replacement before the long-range target.
Retention drives infrastructure
Camera settings and retention policy materially affect storage and bandwidth.
Operations must scale too
A larger device count requires stronger standards, monitoring and documentation.
TERAPIXELS DELIVERABLES
What this engagement established.
- Capacity-planning baseline
- Defined existing and proposed counts
- Storage and server architecture considerations
- Long-range scalability priorities
This profile identifies the engagement status shown above. It does not claim unmeasured results, completed construction beyond the stated scope, or work not awarded to Terapixels.
Bring us the operating problem and the existing conditions.
We will help turn them into a defined, supportable scope.
