Thai Fortune 500 Energy Firm Selects Infortrend

Infortrend Technology, Inc. announced that a Fortune 500 company, a major player in Thailand’s energy sector, has selected the EonServ storage server to safeguard critical facilities through continuous, HD surveillance monitoring.

This energy corporation in Thailand operates a nationwide network of gas distribution points and engages in electricity generation and petrochemical manufacturing, making it a vital player in the country’s energy sector.

To ensure safety and efficiency at critical sites, such as gas separation plants and transmission systems, the company required a reliable storage server for its new surveillance projects. The solution needed to provide round-the-clock operation, offer high capacity for an extended video retention period, support hundreds of high-resolution cameras, and ensure compatibility with Milestone video management software (VMS).

The company selected 5 EonServ 5000 Gen2 storage servers for surveillance across 5 locations. This solution enabled the company to reduce costs and simplify deployment by integrating the Network Video Recorder (NVR) and storage into a single, purpose-built appliance. Certified for Milestone XProtect VMS, the EonServ servers ensured compatibility with diverse surveillance equipment, enabling the surveillance infrastructure across all locations.

The storage servers manage and store high-quality video footage, supporting hundreds of Full HD resolution cameras using the H.264 and H.265 compression formats. With 5 appliances, the solution provided petabyte-level capacity for a 30 to 90-day retention period. The product choice was supported by Infortrend’s partner, Digitalcom Co., Ltd, offering reliable pre- and post-sale service to ensure deployment and maintenance.

“Infortrend highly integrated storage server EonServ 5000 Gen2 provides stable operation with excellent performance and full compatibility with Milestone VMS to support project success. In my opinion, Infortrend product is the best storage server solution for surveillance,” said Anawat N., the enterprise BU head of Digitalcom, system integrator.
