Can anyone recommend a cost effective cloud storage solution that is integrated with Milestone Express+?
I am looking for a product that will enable off site redundant recording with low to moderate recurring monthly fees.
Any suggestions?

Oct 10, 2018I am not aware of anything integrated with Milestone Express+, but I emailed Milestone for feedback and a response.

Oct 11, 2018In order to do redundant recording in Milestone, you essentially just have to add the camera to two different recording servers. You won't be able to do this with Express+ though because it only supports one Recording Server.
We haven't done official testing with cloud except for Microsoft Azure but they should all essentially function the same as long as the cloud instance has enough resources.

Do you have any details you can share on your tests with Azure?
I assume that you connect to Azure by mounting the drive as a UNC path?
What frame rates were you able to achieve in testing?
