This topic is for a deployment in a Data Center, not on a rented Cloud infrastructure, like AWS. |
There are 2 main components:
VMS

Vertically scaling services
Service | Cameras | VCPU | Memory | HDD (Gb) |
SQL DB Cluster | 2500 | 2 | 8 | 250 |
ELK Cluster | 2500 | 1 | 8 | 500 |
Turn Server | 5000 | 2 | 8 | 10 |
Backend/Postgres DB | 10000 | 2 | 8 | 10 |
Resources for 1,000 cameras
The estimate includes a 30% overhead on virtualization:
51 VCPU
232 GB RAM
1282 GB HDD
Example of a server: Xeon Skylake with 28 cores, 56 threads, and 256 GB RAM
Storage
Object storage
There are 2 options for the object storage:
Object storage server, like DELL ECS EX500 series.
General-purpose storage servers like Supermicro, Dell, or HP with object storage software such as minio, Ceph, or others.

Resources for 1,000 cameras
One camera with 1Mbps and 30 days of retention will use approximately 350 GB of object storage. An example of a server for object storage is Xeon Silver with 20 threads and 32 GB RAM.
