Milestone 2x Server Capacities With Enhanced VMD

Author: Brian Karas, Published on Mar 09, 2017

Milestone's first 2017 release includes performance enhancements for video motion detection, which they say can roughly double the number of cameras that can be supported on a single server.

In a discussion with Milestone, we share what is required to take advantage of this enhancement, and details on Milestone's claim of "the world's fastest recording server".
