Axis Communications has released a new open cloud-based platform, Axis Cloud Connect, designed to provide customers with more secure, flexible and scalable security solutions.
With two decades of experience in cloud connectivity and over a million cloud-connected Axis cameras, Axis Cloud Connect is created to work together with Axis devices to enable a range of managed services that support system and device management, video and data delivery and meet high demands for cybersecurity, the company reports.
Axis Cloud Connect enables integration of Axis devices and partner applications by offering a selection of managed services.
To keep systems up to date and ensure consistent system performance and cybersecurity, Axis says it takes added responsibility for hosting, delivering and running digital services to ensure availability and reliability.
The managed services enable secure remote access to live video operations and improved device management with automated updates throughout the lifecycle.
It also offers user and access management for secure control of user access rights and permissions.
Axis Cloud Connect is a channel-friendly open platform that delivers solutions and services for system integrators and end customers.
It also enables Axis partners to develop their own cloud-based solutions to address market opportunities and evolving customer needs.
“Axis Cloud Connect is a continuation of our commitment to deliver secure-by-design solutions that meet changing customer needs,” said Johan Paulsson, CTO, Axis Communications.
“This offering combines the benefits of cloud technology and hybrid architectures with our deep knowledge of analytics, image usability, cybersecurity and long-term experience with cloud-based solutions—all managed by our team of experts to reduce friction for our customers.”
With a focus on adding security, flexibility and scalability to its offerings, Axis has announced that it has built a new video management system (VMS)—AXIS Camera Station—on Axis Cloud Connect.
Axis says it is extending its VMS into a broader offering that includes AXIS Camera Station Pro, Edge and Center.
The AXIS Camera Station offering is engineered to match the needs of users based upon flexible options for video surveillance and device management, architecture and storage, analytics and data management and cloud-based services.
