Summary

Recommendation ITU-T F.743.8 specifies the requirements for a cloud computing platform supporting visual
surveillance. Cloud computing is an emerging technology aimed at providing various computing services over
the Internet. Using virtualization technology, a cloud computing platform realizes a ubiquitous and flexible
shared resources pool that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or
service-provider interaction based on the needs of users. By using the cloud computing technology, the visual
surveillance system can conveniently manage various functional components and services, such as video
distribution, video transcoding and intelligent video processing. This Recommendation provides the
application scenarios and requirements for a cloud computing platform supporting a visual surveillance
system.
