How a deployment is built
Recording servers, one center, operators anywhere
A TRASSIR deployment has three layers: recording servers close to the cameras, an optional central server federating sites, and desktop and mobile clients. Adding a branch means adding a server and pointing it at the center; the operator experience stays identical.
Chasing Sun licenses, deploys and supports the platform across Africa, from a single NVR to a distributed federation of many branches managed from one console.

Analytics integration
Every AI module runs inside the same VMS
Same interface, same archive, same alarm workflow. Start with surveillance and switch on analytics when you need them. There is no extra software layer for your operators to learn.
How federation works
Record at the edge, govern from the center
The platform scales from one camera to distributed systems of 175,000 because of a single design decision: video stays where it is captured, and only control, events and requested streams cross the WAN.
01 · Each site records locally
Cameras stream to the recorder or server on their own site. A branch keeps recording through a link outage; the archive never depends on the WAN.
02 · The center federates
A central server holds the map of sites, users, roles and alarm scenarios, and watches the health of every camera and disk in the estate.
03 · Operators connect anywhere
Desktop clients, video wall and the iOS and Android apps all talk to the federation, with push, Telegram and Discord notifications carrying alarms out.
Growth is additive: a new branch gets its own recorder, joins the federation, and inherits the same rights model, alarm workflow and operator experience as every other site.
Deployment by Chasing Sun
From site survey to SLA, one accountable team
01 · Site survey
We walk your sites, or work from your plans, to map scenes, light and network reality.
02 · System design
A bill of materials with storage math you can audit: channels, retention, analytics load.
03 · Supply & licensing
Genuine TRASSIR licenses and hardware with manufacturer warranty, activated correctly from day one.
04 · Commissioning
Installation, configuration and tuning against the scenes the system will actually watch.
05 · Operator training
The people who will live in the console learn it on their own cameras, not a demo reel.
06 · SLA support
Aftersales support from Nairobi: updates, spares and a named engineer who knows your site.
Common questions
What buyers ask before licensing TRASSIR VMS
Will it work with the cameras we already own?
Yes, in almost every case. TRASSIR VMS supports 99% of cameras via native, RTSP and ONVIF, so you can keep existing cameras and migrate gradually.
How far does the platform scale?
From a single camera to distributed systems with 175,000 cameras. TRASSIR publishes 15,000+ clients in 42 countries running the platform, from single shops to federated national estates.
Which operating systems does it run on?
All major operating systems, including Linux (Debian). TRASSIR NVRs and NeuroStation servers ship with TRASSIR OS preinstalled, and free technical support is part of the platform.
How is licensing handled?
Through authorized distribution: Chasing Sun supplies genuine TRASSIR licenses, activates them correctly at commissioning, and backs them with manufacturer warranty and direct vendor escalation.
Can operators work from their phones?
Yes. iOS and Android apps give live view, archive and alarms on the move, with push, Telegram and Discord notifications so an incident reaches people, not just screens.
How quickly can we see a design and price?
Send your sites, camera counts and retention target and you get a system design and quotation, usually within 48 hours.
License and deploy TRASSIR VMS with local support
Tell us your sites, camera counts and retention target, and we'll design the deployment, license it correctly and stand behind it after it goes live.
