How many cameras will my server support?

[pyeager56]

I am currently running Bluecherry on a Supermicro server with 32 GB of ram, 48 cores, and 120TB of RAID10. I have 190-200 cameras on the system. Would viseron handle this?

Thats an impressive server and a hefty amount of cameras!

There is no hard limitation to how many cameras you can use, but I have personally not tested with more than 10.

The UI might be a bit hard to navigate with that amount.

If you do try, please let me know the outcome so I know what areas needs to be improved for such a use case

In this case, 32GB of RAM with that many cameras won't be enough. However, it also depends on the camera resolution.

Furthermore, if you're using detection, the CPU alone won't be sufficient; you'll need a GPU to handle the processing with that many cameras.

The best way to handle this many cameras is to horizontally scale with 20-30 cameras per Viseron instance. In my opinion...
