Surveillance System Fault Tolerance
It is more fault-tolerant because if one edge recorder fails then only those cameras connected to that unit stop recording. In a centralized approach, all cameras would cease to be recorded.
Additionally, if the network, or communications path, fails for a period of time video from all cameras on the down network is lost forever. On the edge-based storage solution video is still being recording while the network is down, so if an event of interest occurs while the network is down the video recording may be recovered by going out to the edge device, or after the network has been restored.Read more about this topic: Recording At The Edge
Famous quotes containing the words system, fault and/or tolerance:
“The moral immune system of this country has been weakened and attacked, and the AIDS virus is the perfect metaphor for it. The malignant neglect of the last twelve years has led to breakdown of our country’s immune system, environmentally, culturally, politically, spiritually and physically.”
—Barbra Streisand (b. 1942)
“Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.”
—Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)
“Children who begin life with an eagerness to please, need to know that not pleasing is also all right now and then. They learn tolerance for others’ faults through our tolerance of their own.”
—Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)
