When JCI was approached to create a new security platform for the Baghdad International Airport, the main route to the airport and the city center, it was imperative to select the high quality products. Requiring a storage solution with a high level of flexibility which offered high-bandwidth and low latency for the video recorded by over 400 cameras, JCI turned to Promise Technology, Inc.

Promise is the developer of performance storage solutions for video surveillance applications. Its surveillance solutions include the VessRAID external storage series, the family of products which deliver capacity and throughput designed for mid-size to large scale surveillance deployments.

Faced with storing data from over 400 cameras as part of the security project to observe and control the traffic flow from Baghdad International Airport to Baghdad’s city center, JCI deployed more than 40 VessRAID systems in the installation, which includes more than 20 servers and over 30 workstations. Bandwidth was a top priority in order to avoid bottlenecks when concurrent video streams were required at multiple workstations, and VessRAID has answered the challenge by delivering reliable throughput in addition to capacity to store data for an extended period of time. Plus, VessRAID offered flexibility which helped reduce the complexity of the installation and shortened the engineering stage of the project.

JCI is trusted by companies around the world to deliver solutions that solve challenges customers face in even the most demanding environments,” said Bilsay Çitak, senior sales engineer, Johnson Controls. “The video surveillance project in Baghdad was an important part of rebuilding the infrastructure of the city, which not only ensures the security of the environment but also helps manage the flow of traffic. VessRAID delivered the performance, flexibility and capacity the project required in a storage system that was more cost-effective than competing solutions.

Promise is very excited to be part of the surveillance project in Baghdad which will safeguard the people of Iraq and help improve the efficiency of the major transportation channels,” said John van den Elzen, MD of Promise EMEA. “JCI is one of the leading companies in the world building some of the most advanced solutions in the security industry and it is a testament to the design and quality of VessRAID that it delivered the flexibility and performance to excel in this project.
