Surveillance servers are a flexible solution for video recording
Video surveillance servers are a great solution for video recording. They have the flexibility to add and remove storage capacity, to accommodate more cameras. Furthermore these servers can have more horsepower added should any recording plugins be running, or more cameras be added to the system. These servers also allow for updates to the software to add further features and get more capabilities from the same hardware. It is usually only lucrative to use full servers for installations with more than 16 cameras. With the processing power and the storage flexibility they make an ideal choice for areas that will be upgraded later on or require a central surveillance solution for a large building.
