4 Video processing and storage

Summary

Recommendation ITU-T F.743.2 defines the cloud storage service requirements in visual surveillance. Cloud
storage enables service users to have ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool
of configurable storage resources, which can be rapidly provisioned and released with 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 real usage.
This Recommendation provides the application scenarios and requirements for cloud storage in visual
surveillance.
