Spectra Logic on Oct. 23, announced the integration of Spectra BlackPearl hybrid storage architecture into the HauteView Dock Management System by HauteSpot Networks Corporation, 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 long-term retention of all recorded video from every vehicle within an organization’s fleet.
This integration marks the offering of a digital evidence management system with private cloud long-term retention, providing lifecycle management of all digital assets.
“HauteSpot and Spectra Logic have created a valuable industry standard of centralized digital information for law enforcement,” said Bob Ehlers, chairman, HauteSpot Networks. “Our award-winning HauteView solutions offer video and meta data capture and, starting today, tiered video storage from Spectra Logic, to maintain a true chain of custody throughout the system.”
The HauteView Dock Management System solution transfers digital evidence from HauteSpot’s HauteView body worn cameras to Spectra BlackPearl via S3 cloud interface. 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. Today’s launch follows an earlier partnership announcement by Spectra Logic and HauteSpot Networks to provide the first end-to-end workflow for surveillance video.
“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, 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.
