Multi-site operator view
Combine approved feeds in one browser wall without giving every viewer access to the management UI.
VIDEO SURVEILLANCE WORKFLOW
Watch every live site and keep the evidence that matters
Callaba brings camera and encoder feeds into one operator workflow: receive the signal, watch multiple locations in Multiview, preserve recordings, and keep a recovery path ready when an upstream feed becomes unavailable.
FROM CAMERA TO OPERATOR
A visible path from live feeds to monitored evidence
Keep contribution health, the operator view, and recording ownership in the same workflow instead of hiding failures behind an isolated player.
- 01
Receive
Accept SRT, RTMP, RTSP, or NDI sources from sites and encoders.
- 02
Observe
Place approved feeds in a browser Multiview for one operator or a shared team.
- 03
Protect
Use primary and backup paths and switch sources when the operating plan requires it.
- 04
Retain
Record selected feeds and attach storage for review or controlled playback.
OPERATIONAL OUTCOMES
Built for monitoring teams that need signal context
The workflow stays useful before, during, and after an incident because operators can see the live source and retain the relevant media.
Resilient contribution
Keep primary and backup inputs explicit so operators know which source is active.
Recording and archive
Record continuously or selectively and keep media on storage controlled by your team.
WHERE THE WORKFLOW FITS
Use the same operating model across real production scenarios
Remote facilities
Watch stores, campuses, venues, construction sites, or industrial locations from a central operations room.
Event and venue security
Bring temporary camera feeds into a monitored wall and retain the feeds required for review.
Infrastructure observation
Combine live contribution, signal health, and recording for distributed technical sites.
Security-integrator controlled deployment
Deploy the streaming, monitoring, and recording layer on infrastructure selected by the integrator while keeping camera and physical-access systems separate.
PRODUCT LAYER
Choose the Callaba products behind the workflow
Start with the modules the operators need. Add the remaining capabilities as the production path, audience, and retention plan become clear.
IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE
Read the surveillance workflow guideCompare cloud and local recording for remote surveillance video
Plan source ownership, Multiview monitoring, recording location, retention, and recovery without treating Callaba as a VMS or physical-access platform.
OPTIONAL AUTOMATION LAYER
Read the API workflowAutomate the monitored wall after the product workflow is proven
Create and start the Multiview through the REST API, then connect recording and storage modules when the operating policy is stable.
WORKFLOW QUESTIONS
Video surveillance streaming FAQ
Can Callaba show surveillance feeds in one browser Multiview?
Yes. Approved live sources can be arranged in a Multiview so an operator can watch several locations from one browser surface.
Can the same workflow record selected camera feeds?
Yes. Recording and storage are separate modules, so teams can retain the feeds required by their operating and retention policies.
Does Callaba replace a physical camera, VMS, or access-control system?
No. Callaba manages live video contribution, monitoring, routing, recording, and playback around compatible sources. It does not claim camera fleet management, ONVIF or PTZ control, incident alerting, surveillance archive search, or physical-access functions.
Can surveillance video run on private infrastructure?
Yes. Callaba can run in the cloud or on a self-hosted Linux server, depending on network, storage, and governance requirements.
Can operators switch to a backup source?
Yes. Callaba provides explicit source and routing controls for manual and configured recovery workflows; the exact transition behavior should be tested with the real encoders and network.
