ITU-T Recommendations

This Recommendation defines a cloud storage architecture in visual surveillance. Cloud storage enables the service users to have ubiquitous, convenient and on-demand network access to a shared pool of the configurable storage resources, which can be rapidly provisioned and released with the minimal management effort or service-provider interaction. Cloud storage can realize flexible and reliable data storage for large-scale visual surveillance, and its components are modularized and allocated dynamically based on the real usage. This Recommendation provides the architecture, entities, reference points and service control flow for cloud storage in visual surveillance.
