07 Mar Wavestore’s EcoStore™ is reducing the environmental impact of video surveillance
Wavestore’s EcoStore™ is set on reducing the environmental impact and costs of video surveillance systems.
EcoStore saves organisations 80 per cent on hard drive energy costs through its intelligent design, which spins down drives not currently engaged in read or write operations, significantly extending their operational life and providing considerable energy savings.
Its organization of hard drives into groups also ensures that only the active group is powered on during data writing processes.
Designed to scale with any project size, EcoStore is compatible with setups ranging from a minimal two-hard-drive configuration to extensive networks utilizing Wavestore’s PetaBlok storage solution. This adaptability makes it a versatile choice for projects of any scale, emphasizing efficiency and sustainability.
In larger setups, the system can reduce energy consumption to as low as 288 watts for spinning drives, translating to over 82% savings. This reduction in energy usage also leads to decreased cooling requirements and offers the potential for further cost reductions through high-density storage solutions.
As EcoStore continues to serve as a key component in sustainable video surveillance, Wavestore’s dedication to eco-friendly innovation and cost-effective security solutions is evident.
In the run-up to our Security Middle East Conference on the 14th of May 2024, sustainability is an essential topic for discussion.
With carbon footprints and ecological impacts continuously on the rise, we must explore eco-friendly and sustainable technology for the future of the security landscape.
