3. A Custom Monitoring Tool for Video Storage and Delivery Infrastructure
• Neev created a tool to effectively monitor infrastructure usage of
video files generated from IP cameras 24x7 and in real-time which
enabled the client to respond quickly to any non-availability related
issues.

4. The Client
• The client is a UK-based provider of innovative home and business security
solutions.
• They design, manufacture and market a range of wireless internet video
cameras.
• The video and audio feeds can be accessed live through computers,
smartphones or tablets.

5. Business Need
• The client had a security solution comprising a set of IP cameras that records videos on
detection of motion.
• The captured videos were hosted on the cloud and streamed on-demand – live or
recorded.
• It was facing issues with high resource (App server) usage, especially in the weekends.
• There was no way of determining the reason behind the spurt in usage.
• The client required a tool that could monitor IP cameras 24/7 and provide accurate,
real-time camera usage statistics for effective infrastructure management.

6. Neev Solution
• Neev developed a solution to figure out the real-time status of IP cameras and
correlate it with a high server usage.
• This was done with a custom monitoring dashboard that fetched real-time data
from a database (SimpleDB) that stores camera statistics and graphically represents
the data.
• Neev developed plugins that displayed how many cameras are online and how
many of them are recording at the present time.

7. Top Features
• The client could ensure continuous availability of resources for its customers,
especially on weekends with the help of our 24/7 monitoring tool.
• The tool consisted of a custom dashboard with real-time camera usage data
and graphical representation of the data.
• It has now enabled the client to build infrastructure Auto-scaling capability on
top of the existing infrastructure.
• Neev also provided server and cloud support by manually scaling the
infrastructure and ensuring zero failures.

8. Technology Footprint
• Amazon SimpleDB (helps determine camera status), RDS, EC2
• PHP
• Munin
• Monit
• Python Boto for Stats Collection

9. Top Challenges
• To understand the working of an existing system and identifying the real
issue.
• To determine a solution to measure the number of cameras that are online,
the number of cameras that are recording video feeds and the number of
cameras that are streaming live.
