Market Overview
Innovations and the Shift to IP-based Systems Trigger Growth in the North American Physical Security Network Storage Market
Innovations in networking, storage, virtualization, online storage, and compression technologies are spearheading growth in the North American physical security network storage market. The future of storage for physical security lies in the network storage market. Physical security end users are slowly migrating from analog security systems to IP-based ones because of the higher return on investment when compared to analog-based systems. Falling prices and greater level of innovations among the IP-based physical security systems is helping the shift to a more IP-centric systems requiring network-based storage. Integrated security management offers huge potential for network storage systems in physical security. Security systems can be incorporated into enterprise databases to expedite business productivity, paving the way for the creation of new applications. “The increase in the number of video channels per installation and the resolution of the cameras are some of the primary reasons for the growth of data in video surveillance applications,” notes the analyst of this research service. “Among the various physical security sub systems, video surveillance requires maximum storage space owing to increase in the amount of video data being stored; this promises to drive the growth of storage systems.”
Although market prospects look upbeat, there are some challenges curtailing forward momentum. The 2009 economic downturn, combined with the reduction of capital expenditure budgets, will negatively impact the overall marketplace for network storage in physical security during the short term. Enterprise and retail end users are less likely to invest in major capital expenditure installations due to the high upfront costs involved. Despite the economic downturn, physical security needs cannot be ignored and the security industry must aggressively market the shift to IP-based storage based on the increased set of features and functionalities. Physical security will always remain high on the agenda of both the government and the enterprise segments. As end users weigh the benefits of expenditures for installation and implementation of updated and advanced technology against existing infrastructure, recovery in this sector is expected to begin in 2010.
“For participants in this space, focusing on the benefits of IP-based physical security systems supported by network storage systems can facilitate growth in this industry segment,” says the analyst. “Providing case study examples that highlight improvements to operational efficiency, effectiveness, and compliance to regulatory requirements would ramp up market growth potential.” With the North American economy in recovery mode, capital investments will be slow. However, increased automation and utilization of cutting-edge technology will put the market on the fast track to progress.
