Calculated characteristics
After adding a stream to the list (see Selecting cameras), the following parameters are recalculated:
...
- Archive size: disk space or time period.
RAID parameters are:- Number of disks required to build the needed RAID level with the given disk size.
- Total volume = Number of disks * one Disk size
- Effective volume is a disk space required for storage of the archive with the depth set on the Recording time given tab.
- Disk space utilization = Effective volume / Total volume (percentage)
- Disk fault tolerance is a number of disks that can fail without archive loss.
- Summary stream from IP cameras, stream for recording and stream to clients.
The list of recommended platforms.
Info title Note. Results of platforms calculation in the Recommended platforms table can be sorted by column using the
button in the title of corresponding column.
Processor models
In the Server's specs tab one can find the platform calculation results for processors with selected architecture (see Selecting CPU architecture).
...
The number of servers which is required to use for specified number of video cameras is shown in the Servers column. Recommended RAM volume is given in the RAM, GB column.

If 100 cameras are added and as a result of the best platform calculation it is recommended to use 5 servers with 50-60% server load then it is required to use 5 servers and install 100 / 5 = 20 cameras on each server. In this case CPU of each server won't be more than 50-60%. |
Platforms can be filtered in the calculation results. For that, enter the search string in the Platforms filter field.The filter is not case-sensitive.
If platforms are calculated for Axxon Next, then calculation results both with and without the Intel Quick Sync Video technology usage are presented at the Server’s specs tab. The use of this technology provides reducing of CPU load. If this technology is taken into account when calculating results, Intel Quick Sync is specified next to platform name.

Adding a similar platform
To add a platform to the calculation results, type the platform name or part of it in the Add platform to recommendations field or select the platform name in the list. A platform rating at the http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php web-site can be used for search instead of platform name. In this case platforms with names including the entered number will be first in the search results list, and then the platforms with similar rating are displayed. If the platform is in the list of tested, then it will not appear in the list of available for adding.
...
After the platform is selected, click Add platform. The Add the platform similar to dialog opens:
Select one of the tested platforms based on which the calculation should be performed for the platform you are adding. For example, when adding Phenom II x6 1075T, select Intel Core i3-6100 as its performance is about the same level.
The platform will be added to the calculation results. To delete an added platform, click 
.
...
Added platforms are stored in cookies and remain on the list when you refresh or reopen the page. Starting November 2019 you will need to add the previously selected platforms once again, because compared to previous versions of the calculator, calculation algorithms have been improved. When opening calculator, the corresponding message is displayed.

Processors added this way are populated from the http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php web-site data, so the result of platform selection is approximate. |

Promise and Secure Logiq platforms
The IPDROM solutions tab is not available in English version of the Platform calculator. In other tabs in the Recommended platforms group (Promise, Secure Logiq), the recommended platforms by AxxonSoft partners are shown. To view a platform description on partner's web site, click corresponding link in the Platform column.
