Charleston Police Department - Customer Case Study

The Charleston Police Department faced significant scaling challenges with its on-premises IT infrastructure as it rapidly expanded its use of Getac Veretos video evidence management, in-car cameras, and body-worn cameras. The department needed to relieve the strain on the city's network, increase storage and bandwidth for massive video data growth, and ensure system reliability to continue protecting the public effectively.

By migrating the Getac Veretos solution to the Microsoft Azure Government cloud, the department addressed these challenges. The vendor's cloud-based system provided the necessary CJIS-compliant security, scalability, and redundancy. This resulted in increased data throughput and reliability, reduced load on city infrastructure, and enhanced officer safety through improved remote viewing capabilities, all while streamlining data management and information sharing.
