High-Resilience Surveillance: Engineering Security for Jails and Corrections
Modern jails and corrections security requires a high-resilience infrastructure capable of managing the extreme environmental and data demands of prisons and detention centers. Arxys VideoX solutions provide the rock-solid reliability needed for 24/7 video surveillance, delivering a high-performance backbone that is fully validated for major VMS platforms. By supporting up to 50% more IP camera streams per appliance than […]
Solving the Metadata Bottleneck: Optimizing NVR Hardware for Edge AI Environments
Why Your NVR is Choking: Calculating Hardware Overhead for “Edge AI + Server-Side” Hybrid Processing For years, the “spec sheet” for a video surveillance server was simple: storage capacity and basic throughput. However, as we move through 2026, the industry-wide shift from passive recording to active AI monitoring has fundamentally changed the hardware requirements for the backend. […]
The Future of K-12 Safety: Unified Security Platforms and Predictive School Protection
Modern K-12 school security in 2026 centers on Unified Security Platforms that integrate IP-video surveillance, smart access control, and environmental sensors into a single interface. By transitioning from siloed systems to unified digital environments, districts achieve real-time situational awareness, rapid incident resolution, and automated lockdown procedures, significantly reducing emergency response times and administrative burden. The Shift from […]
2026 Security Technology Trends: The Shift Toward Predictive Intelligence
Security Needs Securing Security technology in 2026 is defined by the convergence of physical security and cybersecurity through AI-driven predictive analytics. Key trends include Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), Generative AI for threat hunting, and Smart Sensor integration. These technologies move beyond reactive monitoring to provide real-time, automated risk mitigation across commercial and residential infrastructures. Top Security Technology Trends of 2026 […]

Architectural Superiority: The Chiplet Advantage AMD’s Zen5 utilizes a high-density chiplet architecture combined with an expansive on-board L3 cache. This design […]
Cut Server Costs by 40%: The RAM Savings Secret Behind AMD EPYC Surveillance Servers
How 64MB of Cache Eliminates the Need for 64GB of RAM in Video Servers Why AMD EPYC 9135 Requires Less RAM Than Intel Xeon Silver 4516Y+ for Video Surveillance CPU Specifications Comparison AMD EPYC 9135 (Zen 5 Architecture) Intel Xeon Silver 4516Y+ (Emerald Rapids) How AMD’s Chiplet Architecture Reduces RAM Requirements 1. Superior Cache Hierarchy […]
Hanwha Wisenet WAVE VMS — One Install, Three Functions
What makes WAVE different from traditional VMS platforms? Most older video management systems ship as separate pieces of software: you install a recording server, then a separate management console, then a separate viewing client — often on different machines. WAVE takes a completely different approach. When you install WAVE, the server and client bundle is […]
The AI memory grab that’s choking surveillance infrastructure supply
We are all tired of hearing about AI and about supply shortages and price increases. But it’s important to understand how we got here and why AI’s appetite for memory is starving your surveillance supply chain. If you’ve noticed memory and storage getting harder to source and more expensive to buy, you’re not imagining things. The […]
The Right Windows OS for Your Video Surveillance Infrastructure
Just like Arxys does not use general purpose servers for video surveillance, we also don’t use general purpose Windows OS’s. Every Arxys server and workstation always ships with the LTSC (now known as IOT) custom version of Windows OS. Whether desktop or Server OS both have the same core benefits. LTSC (Long-Term Servicing Channel) is a […]
Convergence of Physical Security and OT Cybersecurity
Physical security systems have become deeply integrated with operational technology (OT) and enterprise IT networks. At the center of this convergence is the video server running the video management system (VMS). No longer a passive recorder, the video server is a critical OT cyber asset responsible for ingesting, processing, storing, and transmitting sensitive operational and […]
