    Hitachi Insight Group introduced three new Video Management Platform (VMP) models aimed at driving the company towards the video security and monitoring market.

    The VMP models make use of virtual computing and storage which allows for increased scalability of systems, with users being able to allocate resources wherever and whenever needed.

    Hitachi looks at these highly scalable VMP models with better information storage and security as a way for companies that rely on traditional physical video security and monitoring systems to transition to a system that can capitalize on cloud and IoT technology.

    “Video monitoring and security are key areas where digitalization can offer profound benefits. However, the migration to digital video solutions has been slow, due in large part to the limitations of existing products and a reliance on legacy technologies and analog video formats. With its Video Management Platform, Hitachi is addressing a major gap in the video compute and storage market that has prevented physical security solutions from evolving to fully embrace digital transformation and IoT,” said Pierre Bourgeix, vice president of SecureState, a consulting firm.

    Hitachi Insight Group also announces its collaboration with Milestone Systems and OnSSI in providing consumers with better video management software (VMS) solutions, with the platform being compatible with Milestone System’s XProtect and OnSSI’s Ocularis 5.

    Reinier Tuinzing, Milestone Systems’ strategic alliances manager for the Americas commented, “Milestone’s robust open IP video management software together with the simplicity and reliability of Hitachi’s Video Management Platform will help to pave the way for smarter, safer cities, industries and businesses of the future.”

    The new platform configurations, the VMP 150, 500, and 1000, allow broader applications for enterprise security, industrial efficiency, and workplace and traffic safety and can support medium to large enterprise security requirements from 150 to more than 10,000 cameras

    With the new platform models, the company looks to gain a better footing in the the six billion-dollar market for video security and monitoring.
