Keep Your Security System Up and Running
Smoothly and Economically
OUR SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEMS
As your business grows so will the volume of your everyday data. If you are already bothered by bandwidth and storage issues, it’s time to take a look at Hikvision’s H.265+ compression and Direct Streaming technologies which will keep your security system up and running, smoothly and economically.
More Colorful, More Efficient
Optimized Video Encoding Technology for Surveillance
WHAT'S H.265+?
An intelligent algorithm self-developed by Hikvision that can greatly decrease the bitrate of video based on a standard H.265 codec. Hikvision's H.265+ is such an optimized video encoding technology based on the standard H.265/ High efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) format.
With H.265+, video quality nearly matches that of H.265/HEVC but reduces the transmission bandwidth and storage capacity required, due to three key technologies — prediction encoding, noise suppression, and flexible bitrate control.
It demonstrates incredible improvements in bandwidth reduction, data storage efficiency, and video content analyses.
WHAT'S THE CHALLENGE?
Ultra HD surveillance cameras have been in production for some time now, but they were not immediately and widely applied because they require excessive transmission bandwidth and massive storage capacity. How to limit bitrate from ultra-HD video streams becomes a critical problem, determining the suitability of these cameras in your project.
The problem can be solved by using Hikvision's H.265+ encoding technology which employs about 32.4% of the bitrate of H.265 on average (according to Hikvision H.265+ Encoding Technology White Paper). As the bitrate of recorded footage is greatly reduced, bandwidth and storage costs are reduced as well.
H.265+ IS OPTIMIZED FOR SURVEILLANCE SCENARIOS WITH THE FOLLOWING FEATURES
-
Background information stays stable and rarely changes.
-
Moving objects, the main area of focus, appear only occasionally in a substantial portion of surveillance video footage.
-
24-hour non-stop surveillance is required.
H.265+ extends the applications of ultra HD surveillance cameras, such as 8 MP and 12 MP cameras.
Enabling More with Less
Revelutionize Video Storage with Direct Streaming Technology
WHAT'S THE CHALLENGE?
Video read/write operations go through recording servers which easily bottleneck the entire storage system, taking up data storage space and increasing costs. The conventional file system periodically overwrites data, causing a large number of file fragments. And the performance of the storage devices degrades as their time of usage increases.
Even worse, in case of server failures or breakdowns, data may become read-only or may simply get lost.
SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEMS
Direct Streaming Technology
Hikvision’s Direct Streaming Technology ensures direct writing of video streams into storage devices, eliminating costs for additional recording servers, and thus preventing failures and performance bottlenecks of servers. It utilizes independent storage devices featuring high reliability, so that any fault in a single disk array will not affect other disk arrays. Its unique video streaming protection mechanism helps eliminate file fragments resulting from data overwriting, as well as loss of storage performance and disk utilization.
This technology enables direct access to the client and the platform so that end-users can download, retrieve, browse, and play back footage directly at high speeds. It improves the efficiency of search and write operations with a simplified process while maintaining video data security at enterprise levels.
The technology makes a video storage and management system easier to implement – and scale up – and paves the way for the most efficient distributed storage and centralized management available.
It is suitable for scenarios where both rack space and network bandwidth are limited.
