24 Nov Axis Communications to launch two new solutions

Axis Communications has announced the launch of two new solutions within the AXIS Camera Station ecosystem which aim to enhance network video management through edge cloud capabilities, improving physical security and surveillance systems for companies.

AXIS Camera Station Edge (ACS Edge) and AXIS Camera Station Cloud Storage (ACS Cloud Storage) transform network video management through edge cloud capabilities and enhance companies’ physical security and surveillance systems. The two solutions are now available as part of the AXIS Camera Station product suite.

As cloud adoption becomes essential for businesses in the Middle East to navigate the global digital economy, the cloud also emerges as an essential component of modernising businesses’ physical security and surveillance capabilities, combined with its potential for enhanced data analysis and cybersecurity.

Providing a cloud-to-camera experience that’s easy to set up and use, ACS Edge introduces a method of managing video data by processing images directly on the camera. This eliminates the need for external servers or cloud-based processing, resulting in reduced infrastructure needs, total cost of ownership (TCO), and operational costs.

“With ACS Edge, we are offering a true cam-to-cloud solution, while the rest of our new ACS offering extends our customers the opportunity of on-premise, cloud, and hybrid solutions,” said David Needham, EMEA Business Development Program Manager at Axis Communications.

A major advantage of Axis is faster video access, as processing occurs on the device itself and not on an external server, thus reducing system complexity.

ACS Edge easily integrates with Axis Edge devices with cloud services, enabling users to manage large data volumes efficiently, and is easily deployable, requiring only an Axis camera with an SD card or AXIS S30 Recorder Series, minimising setup time and ongoing maintenance.
