“Over 50% of end-users are still going to keep at least part of their security infrastructure on-premises,” said Oliver Philippou, Research Manager, Physical Security Technologies, Omdia.

“A hybrid-cloud approach can enable customers to gradually transition towards a cloud architecture, benefiting from cloud efficiencies while retaining on-premises storage for legal, compliance, or business needs.

“This flexibility results in cost savings and ensures that customers are not forced into a one-size-fits-all solution.”

Flexible solutions

“The hybrid approach isn’t a steppingstone to the cloud but the baseline for how to deploy physical security leveraging cloud technology,” said Christian Morin, Vice President of Product Engineering, Genetec.

“Customers need a flexible solution that respects the unique requirements of their business, recognising that not every company will choose or need to fully transition to the cloud.”
