Real words or buzzwords?: Software-Defined

During my recent in-depth look at Hyper-Converged Infrastructure, I realized that I had also underestimated the significance of “software-defined” technologies. Once again, I need to say that many IT folks – especially enterprise system architects and those involved in data center and cloud engineering – already know most of what I’m about to say, except for my comments about the physical security industry. I’m quoting from several of them for this article.

Hyper-converged infrastructure, like the products from Pivot3, and smart video appliances like those from Eagle Eye Networks and its Cloud VMS, are already making high-performance video deployments more affordable than ever before. Security and IoT infrastructure management at large scale is provided by the cloud-based services of Viakoo, which provide proactive, preemptive and predictive service assurance for electronic physical security systems and their IoT devices, including automated firmware management for video camera deployments of any size. You probably know these names, but do you know where their solutions stand today? You are likely to be pleasantly surprised.
