ECS 3.6.2 Data Access Guide

Cloud DVR overview

ECS supports cloud Digital Video Recording (DVR) feature which addresses a legal copyright requirement for cable and satellite companies. The requirement is every unit of recording mapped to an object on ECS needs to be copied a predetermined number of times. The predetermined number of copies are known as fanout.

The cloud DVR requirement is to create "N" number of copies each of size "M" at the time of object creation. In this, "N" indicates fanout and "M" indicates unit recording size that can be different for each write request.

NOTE: The cloud DVR feature is available from ECS 3.6 and it is disabled by default. Contact ECS remote support to enable the cloud DVR feature.
