Introducing a full -scale surveillance camera with NAS easily!Switching of recording system and POS linkage according to the location information of Synology "Surveillance Station"

　In Japan, it is a surveillance camera solution that is often sold mainly for corporations, such as stores and warehouses.The movement to make such surveillance cameras can be used easily by individuals is becoming active.

　Among them, Synology is known as NAS vendors.

　The company's two -bay high -cost performance NAS "DS216J" has become a record hit product in Japan, but as you can see in this example, the company re -solutions for corporations to individuals.A very good vendor to create.

　At present, surveillance camera solutions, which are often thought to be for corporations, are likely to be re -recognized as a daily existence suitable for home use by the company.

　However, in Japan, it is not common to use surveillance cameras at home at this time.How is it used overseas, where the spread is progressing?

　Hisatoshi Tano, a sales manager at the Taiwan Synology headquarters, said this point:"In the United States, the concept of" home surveillance "is generally permeated. The main factors are large and have a high security awareness, but not only in the house, but also in gardens, garages, pools, etc.There are many people who set up for the purpose of monitoring. "

　Although it seems to be a US situation where security awareness and self -defense are strong, it is large, and many families have 4 to 5 cameras.

　So why is NAS being used for using such surveillance cameras at home?

　The first thing that can be considered is cost.In Japanese images, dedicated surveillance camera solutions are generally "(very much)" for the cost of equipment, but it does not seem to be the same in the United States.However, according to Mr. Tano, "Recently, low -priced DVR solutions have appeared, so the NAS of Synology has not been selected only for pure cost merit."

　"Rather, the number of people who choose with the benefits of the NAS is increasing," says Tano."The NAS is an excellent storage destination of large and continuous data, as in the recorded data. It can also ensure redundancy due to multiple drives, and there are many backup methods such as local and cloud. When the capacity is insufficient.There is also an advantage that can be easily expanded. Many people choose the flexibility that is not found in these traditional DVR solutions. "

　It is said that many people try to use the already introduced NAS."As with individuals, there are many cases in corporations who are considering the introduction of surveillance cameras are the users of Synology products.It seems that it is a trigger (Mr. Tano). "

　As mentioned at the beginning, thanks to the hit of the DS216J, the number of Synology users in Japan is increasing, and the brand recognition is high.If the introduced NAS can be used for monitoring, the number of people who want to try it will increase in the future.
