Intransa VideoAppliance Offers Pre Loaded Milestone XProtect IP Video Management Software

  • Jun 09, 2009

Intransa announced that its video surveillance appliances will now include XProtect™ from Milestone Systems, a provider of open platform IP video management software.

"The Intransa VideoAppliance introduction is a major step toward simplicity in the delivery of best-in-breed IP surveillance based on our open platform XProtect video management software," said Eric Fullerton, chief sales and marketing officer for Milestone. "This is a great option for customers and integrators to consider, reducing support and integration challenges and resulting in lower total cost of deployment."

Milestone XProtect was previously tested and certified by the Intransa StorAlliance Technology Partner Labs for integration with the company’s video data management and retention (VDMR) platforms that have the ability to scale from 2 to 1,500 terabytes (TB) of video capacity.

XProtect and more than 150 applications and products that include IP cameras, megapixel cameras, DVRs, NVRs, video management systems, physical security information management systems, life safety, access control, authentication, and biometrics are certified for risk-free integration with Intransa VDMR platforms. Milestone is one of the first solutions to certify their proven video surveillance technology for pre-loading on the new Intransa VideoAppliance family.

"For more than a decade, Milestone has demonstrated worldwide market leadership in IP video surveillance," said Bud Broomhead, CEO of Intransa. "We are extremely pleased to be able to offer XProtect as one of our premier offerings on the new Intransa VideoAppliance family, and expect our customers to be similarly excited."

Intransa VideoAppliance systems eliminate many of the issues associated with commodity hardware, bringing simplicity and reduced cost to video surveillance. Each Intransa VideoAppliance is optimized for video, eliminating the risk of improperly sizing and configuring commodity hardware, and ensuring maximum performance and availability in the demanding, 24x7x365 world of surveillance. Preloaded with XProtect, the power and capabilities of this advanced IP surveillance system are delivered by Intransa with the ease of an appliance, without any of the complexity or challenges of commodity hardware.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
