Earlier this month, BCDVideo attended ISC West in Las Vegas. One of the most popular topics of the show was BCDVideo’s certified hyperconverged solution (HCI-VS), a virtualised, video optimised, and highly available infrastructure. The argument for hyperconvergence for physical security - “The key to hyperconvergence and virtualisation for the physical security market hinges on the effective utilisation of resources."

"Regardless of the platform you run on, server resources are rarely used efficiently or to their full potential,” said Darren Giacomini, BCDVideo’s Director of Advanced Systems Architecture. "Leveraging virtualisation and hyperconvergence allows integrators to not only better utilise bare-metal resources but also combine server resources for surveillance, access control, and building management while reducing the overall footprint of the solution,”  he said.
