Simplifying Cloud Storage for Security Integrators: ADI Offers Cloud Storage Powered by Wasabi

March 31, 2025By Daniel Collins

The physical security industry is evolving rapidly, and with it comes an increasing demand for scalable, cost-effective storage solutions for video surveillance systems. To help security integrators meet these challenges, we are excited to announce our partnership with ADI Global Distribution to introduce ADI Cloud Storage Powered by Wasabi. With this solution, security integrators can now offer their customers an easy-to-deploy cloud storage solution that integrates seamlessly with their customers’ video management system (VMS), providing the accessibility and security required for mission-critical video surveillance applications. 

A game-changer for security integrators 

Many traditional cloud storage options are not built for video surveillance workloads, which delivers more confusion than solutions. Most come with hidden costs, including egress fees and API request charges which make budgeting difficult, especially when it comes to the unpredictability of when you’ll need to play back video. Others lack the seamless integration needed to work effectively with existing VMS platforms, leading to complex deployments and frustrated customers. 

Security professionals must ensure that video data remains accessible, secure, and compliant with specific regulations. While familiar, on-premises storage solutions are expensive to scale and require ongoing maintenance, making them less viable and more vulnerable as surveillance demands grow. 

However, ADI Cloud Storage Powered by Wasabi is not about replacing on-premises systems – it's about enhancing them. This joint solution employs a hybrid approach, where cloud storage serves as an extension of existing infrastructure. Cloud storage shouldn’t be seen as an all-or-nothing replacement for on-premises hardware-it's a complementary solution that enhances existing systems. Security integrators can offer cloud storage as an extension of local systems, providing flexibility for long-term retention, disaster recovery, and scalability without requiring massive hardware upgrades.  

ADI Cloud Storage Powered by Wasabi enables integrators to offer a hybrid approach where customers receive the best of both worlds – local storage for immediate access and cloud for cost-effective, secure, and scalable expansion. 

Why ADI Cloud Storage Powered by Wasabi? 

  • Seamless integration: Compatible with leading VMS platforms, enabling hassle-free replication to the cloud 

  • Infinite scalability: Easily expand storage capacity as needed without complex infrastructure upgrades 

  • Affordable pricing with no surprises: No hidden fess including egress charges and API request fees 

  • Powerful security and protection: Offsite protection for a disaster recovery strategy with immutable storage – write once, read many, change nothing 

Expanding market reach and driving cloud adoption 

This partnership represents a significant step in Wasabi’s ongoing mission to bring cloud storage built for video surveillance to the physical security industry. By teaming up with ADI, one of the most trusted distributors in security technology, we make it easier than ever for integrators to offer cloud storage as a value-added service to their customers. 

As cloud adoption continues to accelerate in the security industry, this partnership allows ADI’s extensive network of integrators to access a best-in-class cloud storage solution that eliminates the complexity and high costs traditionally associated with the cloud. Together, ADI and Wasabi are empowering security professionals with the tools they need to future-proof their video storage strategies.
