The challenge
As a leading pharmacy chain with hundreds of retail locations and thousands of checkout terminals, Super-Pharm needed to monitor the whole network and ensure that every pharmacy functions properly. To do this, they wanted a lightweight solution that would record every checkout point session in video format in order to detect bugs and perform troubleshooting. They also wanted to investigate security incidents and system errors to quickly solve problems that may arise.
