Exploring XProtect VMS System Architecture
Milestone XProtect can be deployed in both single-server and distributed installations. In this course, you explore the system architecture of a XProtect Video Management Software (VMS) installation and discover the purpose of each system component.
After completing this course, system designers and integrators will be able to:
- List the components of XProtect VMS.
- Explain the function of each of the components.
- Describe the communication protocol and ports for various functions within the system.
INTERMEDIATE
Designing Small-to-medium XProtect VMS
The Milestone Design Model is a step-by-step guide and checklist that helps system designers when designing end customer systems with Milestone XProtect VMS. In this course, you will design an installation based on end customer requirements.
After completing this course, system designers will be able to:
- Determine surveillance objectives.
- Define and calculate image quality for cameras.
- Discuss basic network topologies.
- Advise your customers about product selection.
- Use the XProtect Server Calculator to calculate needs for servers, network, and storage.
Designing with multi-streaming
Multi-streaming and adaptive streaming improves performance and reduces client CPU load. This course covers how to design an adaptive streaming solution.
After completion, solution designers will be able to:
- Explain how multi-streaming improves system performance.
- Design multi-stream solutions for specific challengest.
Designing XProtect on AWS solutions
Milestone XProtect® VMS takes full advantage of AWS cloud infrastructure, and Milestone offers XProtect® on AWS Cloud Formation products on AWS Marketplace to simplify deployment.
