The Promise Vess Series of Storage appliances are reliable integrated server and storage solutions for IP video surveillance. Vess Storage appliances are open platform solutions that can be deployed with any of the leading IP cameras and video management software (VMS) for installations of any size.
More Flexible Deployment with Linux OS Supported
Linux users now have more options for their surveillance system deployment. Promise Vess A Series supports Linux distributions on select Vess A models for surveillance networks running Linux-based VMS in the back-end system*
*The supported Linux distributions is listed on the datasheet and please contact your channel partners if you need others.
All-in-One Server and Scalable Storage Appliance
Reduces maintenance and service costs.
Easily expand via iSCSI by adding Promise storage.
Built for Surveillance and Highly Integrated Capability
SDK library available for VMS UI & Management Integration.
Supports to develop VMS plug-in enabling it to be managed via VMS interface..
Simplified Management and Serviceability
Modularized design and One Plug Auto Service simplifies maintenance and tech support workflow.
Unique features dedicated for Surveillance application used to overcome RAID performance bottlenecks and allow Vess A3340 series storage appliances to handle a higher quantity of IP cameras than competing systems.
Predictive Playback
Utilizes idle recording times to monitor read patterns to predict where the next playback will be needed so the hard disk drives are not competing with the workload of the system.
Remote Active Service
Takes all worries away by proactively detecting when PSU, controllers or HDDs are going into critical condition and automatically notifying user the hardware status. A huge advantage in installations with site restrictions, such as banking, as it not only saves maintenance costs but also the headaches caused when outside support personnel need access to restricted areas.
Sequential Pattern Recording
Eliminates the heavy workloads caused by random write patterns; this feature monitors recording patterns and collects data in the cache buffer and writes data to the drives once a full stripe is ready. This creates a sequential recording pattern which offers the smoothest performance.
