Bosch Video Management System 8.0

www.boschsecurity.com

The Bosch Video Management System (BVMS) is a unique enterprise IP video security solution that provides seamless management of digital video, audio, and data across any IP network. It provides the best VMS to go with Bosch CCTV devices, leveraging the unique capabilities of Bosch cameras and recording solutions. It nevertheless offers interfaces and standards to integrate other systems and manufacturers.

The system is equipped with a unique embedded resilience.

It keeps operations up and running even when both, Management and Recording Servers fail.

On edge intelligent Video Analyses and the unmatched recording technology managing up to 2000 cameras with a single server dramatically reduces the total cost of ownership.

The Bosch Video Management System allows a very flexible system design:

•Professional: Single Management Server System 1 to 2000 cameras out of the box.

•Enterprise System: Supporting multi Management Server requirements for Metro, Airport and other large industrial facilities across different time zones.

24/7

uMaximize resilience - keep operations up and running even when multiple system components fail.

uReduced total cost of ownership - manage up to 2000 cameras with a single server to reduce installation and operating costs.

uBosch video at its best - support Bosch cameras and better than any other management software.

uIT environments and data security - profit from full IT compatibility from installation to configuration in a secure way.

Supports controlled monitoring across different legal entities. Monitoring of up to 10,000 cameras across 10 subsystems per user group resulting in 200,000 cameras in total.

Up to 50 subsystems per user group for <200 cameras per subsystem, allowing each operator to access events, alarms, live and playback from up to 50 Management Server computers simultaneously.

•Maximum 2000 ONVIF cameras per Management Server.

•Access to live including PTZ control and recorded video of up to 9999 sites with Bosch DVR recorders, DIVAR IP 3000 / 7000 and single Management Server systems.

The Bosch Video Management System is installed on a Microsoft Windows Operating System.

We recommend using Bosch Workstations and Servers. They are fully tested and optimized for Bosch Video Management System.

In addition to the Bosch Security Systems standard terms and conditions of sale, the Bosch Software Maintenance Agreement is a great option to keep BVMS always up to date.

System overview

Software components

•Management Server software provides management, monitoring, and control of the entire system. One single Management Server manages up to 2000 Cameras/encoders.

•Enterprise Management Server provides access to multiple Management Servers.

•Video Recording Manager (VRM) provides recording and playback management of video, audio, and data. One single VRM manages up to 2000 cameras/ encoders (including up to 2000 ONVIF cameras).

•Configuration Client software provides the straight forward user interface for system configuration and management.

•Config Wizard software provides easy and fast setup of a small recording system when using the BVMS Appliance.

•BVMS Appliance: DIVAR IP 3000/7000 is a simple and reliable all-in-one recording, viewing, and management solution for network surveillance systems with 32 channels pre-licensed.

•Operator Client software provides the ergonomic and intuitive user interface for system monitoring and operation.

•Mobile Video Service provides a transcoding service. It transcodes the live and recorded video stream from a configured camera according to the available network bandwidth. This service enables video clients to view high-quality images via low bandwidth.

•Mobile App (iPhone or iPad): Access live and playback video from remote in single or quad-view. Alert and share live video from mobile camera with other security staff with a single click. App available in AppStore.

•Web Client: Access live and playback video from remote in single or quad-view. Search for text data and trigger export of videos on Management Server.

•Bosch Video Streaming Gateway: Bosch cameras, ONVIF cameras, JPEG cameras, RTSP encoders.

Bosch Video Recording Manager (VRM) provides a Distributed Network Video Recorder solution, eliminating the need for dedicated NVRs.

The usage of multiple client Workstations offers great scalability.

Functions

Embedded Resilience

Video Recording Manager (VRM)

VRM provides load balancing and failover for the iSCSI Storage System and makes it easy to add additional iSCSI Storage Systems later on. VRM introduces the concept of a storage virtualization layer. This abstraction layer enables VRM to manage all of the individual disk arrays in the entire system as various “virtual” pools of storage, which are intelligently allocated as needed.

A storage pool is a container for one or more iSCSI storage systems that share the same load balancing properties.

Dual / failover recording:

•A Primary VRM manages the normal recording of the cameras of your system. You use a Secondary VRM to achieve dual recording of your cameras.

Dual recording allows you to record video data from the same camera to different locations.

A Secondary VRM can manage the secondary recording for multiple Primary VRMs.

A Failover VRM is used for continuing the recording of a failed Primary VRM or a failed Secondary VRM computer.

BVMS furthermore supports Live and Playback of the following recording engines:

•DIVAR IP series, Local Storage, Direct iSCSI recording; Bosch Recording Station (BRS), Video Streaming Gateway (VSG).

For legacy purposes the following recording engines are supported: DVR, DiBos, VIDOS (Live only).
