Spectra Logic and HauteSpot Networks unveil video storage and management solution

Spectra Logic announced the integration of Spectra BlackPearl hybrid storage architecture into the HauteView dock management system by HauteSpot Networks, an international provider of wireless video surveillance, edge video processing, and security solutions. Together, Spectra Logic and HauteSpot provide law enforcement, transit authorities, fire fighters, EMS professionals and others with affordable, long-term retention of all recorded video from every vehicle within an organization's fleet.

This integration marks the first offering of a digital evidence management system with private cloud long-term retention, providing lifecycle management of all digital assets, which reduces complexity and lowers total cost of ownership.

The HauteView dock management system solution efficiently transfers digital evidence from HauteSpot's HauteView body worn cameras to Spectra BlackPearl via S3 cloud interface (object storage). This technology combination provides a reliable means of capturing and preserving digital surveillance data, enabling all evidence to be fully managed and retained, assuring its longevity, on proven LTO or IBM TS1150 tape technology.

"The law enforcement market will be the first to benefit from this unique integration, leading the shift to on-premises ownership of surveillance data for centralized access and true control of sensitive, evidence-based assets," said Matt Starr, Chief Technology Officer at Spectra Logic. "In an increasingly video-ready world, we offer the first centralized digital information solution with private cloud for enhanced security and greater cost efficiencies."
