1. Product Description
Optimized for Video Surveillance
The Vess A8600 combines performance and scalability with on-premises storage ideal for video surveillance and data-intensive workloads for large enterprises. The Vess A8600 and A8800 are specifically designed for video recording and Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) applications. Hardware options include PCI slots for additional Intel Xeon CPUs (dual CPU option); or GPU cards can be used for video analytics or other processor-intensive applications.
PROMISE’s proprietary SMARTBOOST™ and PromiseRAID technologies ensure robust, high-performance storage for video recording without dropped frames; this technology has proven its value in the industry through thousands of large-scale deployments worldwide.
The Vess A8600’s 320TB storage capacity plus massive expansion potential provides flexibility for future growth. Capacity can be seamlessly added to an existing setup as needed using the Vess R3000/J3000 external storage hardware connected via an iSCSI interface.
Simple Management and Reduced Complexity
The Vess A8600 simplifies surveillance network management for day-to-day operations. The integrated recording and storage server provides a total video surveillance solution that combines VMS software and external storage. The legacy of the Vess A-Series is fully realized in the Vess A8600 with features integrated into most popular VMS vendors. The systems are easy to set up, manage, and maintain, significantly reducing the burden on already overworked IT teams. Once deployed, little active management is required and for many VMS platforms, storage system status is monitored directly on the VMS user interface using a dedicated plug-in designed for the specific VMS. The management software supports SNMPv2 as well as SNMPv3 for enhanced security.
The modular hardware design allows for quick on-site replacement of components such as hard drives and power supplies, along with One Plug Automated Service (OPAS) for quick diagnosis of any issues with PROMISE’s technical support team available online or by phone 24/7.
Energy Saving and Green Technology
PROMISE is committed to creating energy-efficient products and minimizing harmful waste during manufacturing. The new Vess A8600 continues this effort with hot-swappable power modules and green design concepts (GreenBoost™ technology) integrated into the hardware engineering to reduce power consumption, noise, and heat.
