SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CENTRAL MANAGEMENT OF NETWORK AND STORAGE RESOURCES FOR A VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM

摘要

System and method for central managing of network and storage resources by dynamically receiving over a network bit rate parameters related to video processing units of one or more edge devices and dynamically adjusting a bit rate of one of the processing units based on required bit rates of the processing units and bandwidth limitations of the network. The system and method may further include dynamically receiving storage parameters related to internal storage units of the edge devices and to external storage units coupled to the edge devices and instructing one of the edge devices where to store the video data based on the storage parameters and bandwidth limitations of the network.
