Everest · Data Orchestration Platform

Your cameras keep recording.
Everest handles the rest.

Everest is the data orchestration engine of the PeakInsights platform. It rides on the Lhotse secure connection to move data bidirectionally between your site and the cloud — deciding where data lives, managing the full video and sensor lifecycle, recovering data to the edge on demand, and balancing health and efficiency across every site in your fleet.

Video & Sensor Data Lifecycle

Local Only → Local + Cloud → Cloud Only.

Everest manages every video file and sensor data stream through three phases automatically. Your existing platform is unaware. Your operators see nothing change. Your storage costs fall.

PHASE 1 — LOCAL ONLY

New footage on local drive. Full resolution, zero latency. Your existing setup works exactly as before.

PHASE 2 — LOCAL + CLOUD

File mirrored to cloud. Local copy stays for instant playback. Cloud copy is your backup. MD5 integrity verified on every transfer.

PHASE 3 — CLOUD ONLY

Local replaced by 150-byte placeholder. Cloud is source of truth. Everest restores transparently when footage is requested. Operator sees nothing.

Key Capabilities

Built for enterprise surveillance at scale.

Orchestration

Bidirectional Data Pipe

Moves data in both directions over the Lhotse secure connection — from site to cloud for storage and analytics, and from cloud back to edge on demand. The pipe is always open, always managed.

Placement

Intelligent Data Placement

Decides where each file lives — on the edge, in the cloud, or both — based on age, access patterns, and policy. Your operators see no change. Your storage costs fall automatically.

Recovery

Cloud-to-Edge Restoration

Full site restore from cloud — no local state required. Everest transparently restores footage or sensor data to the edge when requested. Recover an entire location from zero.

Cross-Site

Cross-Site Health & Balancing

Monitors operational health across every connected site. Balances load, flags degraded sites, and surfaces efficiency metrics across your entire fleet from a single console.

Replication

Real-Time Replication

Every video segment and sensor record replicated as it is written. Zero buffering. MD5 integrity verified on every transfer. Ideal for compliance deployments requiring immediate off-site backup.

Compatibility

Works with Any Setup

Pairs with Lhotse for a full cloud-native stack, or deploys alongside your existing VMS or NVR. No modification. No configuration change. Completely transparent to your existing platform.

Security

AES-256 + MD5 Integrity

Encryption at rest and in transit. MD5 integrity on every upload and download. HTTPS RBAC. Full audit trail. Any major cloud provider — multi-cloud and multi-region supported.

Management

Multi-Site Console

Local browser app for site admins. Cloud web app for multi-site operators. One view across all locations, all lifecycle phases, all health metrics.

Who It’s For

Three customer profiles. One solution.

Existing Camera Platform Customer

You have cameras and an existing platform. Keep them.

Everest layers on top — completely transparent to your existing setup. Cloud tiering, storage cost reduction, and disaster recovery from day one — without modifying a single configuration file.

New Deployment

Building a new site from scratch.

Everest pairs with Lhotse for a full cloud-native stack, or with any camera platform you prefer. Design your storage architecture right from the first camera.

Multi-Site Operator

5, 20, or 50 locations. One console.

Everest’s cloud web app gives visibility across all sites. Each site has its own lifecycle policy, cloud path, and billing. Managed from one interface.
