Why the Surveillance Tech at the Edge Needs a Rugged NVR

 

The need for capable, flexible and resilient NVRs is more apparent than ever. In an October 2019 study, Gartner, Inc. found that outdoor surveillance cameras will most likely be the biggest market for 5G IoT solutions through 2023.

On today’s episode of the MarketScale Technology podcast, we’re rejoined by returning contributor Premio, a global solutions provider specializing in computing technology from the edge to the cloud.

Our guests Phillip Hall, Content Marketing & Communication Manager, and Dustin Seetoo, Director of Product Marketing, gave us insight on surveillance technology at the edge and, more specifically, the growth and use cases for NVRs at the rugged edge.

NVR technology has improved and become more capable over the last several years to meet the demands of the rugged edge, environments that are often remote, detached or satellite locations, both manned and unmanned.

With more computational storage and power, these rugged NVRs bring processing and overall capabilities closer to the surveilled environment, reducing latency right as the need for network surveillance en masse at the rugged edge becomes a top priority for connected cities to come.

Hall and Seetoo pulled from Premio’s client experience and industry expertise to break down…

  • What defines a rugged edge environment
  • Why more demanding environments need surveillance technologies
  • What has led to improved computational power and decentralization for NVRs
  • How Premio’s rugged NVR solutions aim to create standards for the industry
  • How the incoming expansion of 5G and smart cities will drive

The Origin Story of the Rothman Index – Episode 5
January 8, 2026

Hospitals collect enormous amounts of clinical data, yet preventable patient decline remains a persistent challenge. Over the past two decades, hospitals have invested heavily in early warning scores and rapid response infrastructure, but translating data into timely, meaningful action has proven difficult. As clinicians contend with alert fatigue and increasing documentation burden, a more…

Healthcare generates enormous volumes of clinical data, yet making sense of that information in real time remains a challenge. Subtle changes in vitals, labs, and nursing assessments often precede serious events, but when that information is fragmented across the medical record, emerging risks can go unnoticed. The central challenge facing hospitals today is not…

Delivering Moments That Matter: The Art of Joy, Memory, and Meaning at Anthropologie Home
January 8, 2026

These days, ‘home’ means more than just four walls. It’s where people reset, gather, and express who they are—raising the bar for what they expect from the brands that help shape those spaces. Consumers are no longer just buying décor—they’re investing in meaning, memory, and moments that last. Research continues to show that people…

Small Margins, Big Risks: How Fraud Hurts Texas Energy Retailers
January 6, 2026

Fraud has quietly become one of the most existential threats in Texas’s deregulated retail electricity market—because the business runs on razor-thin margins and delayed payment. Under the non-POR system overseen by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), retail energy providers assume the full risk of nonpayment. With profit margins often measured in just a…
