Ava Cloud Cameras

Ava Cloud Cameras is a simple video surveillance system that lets you place cameras around your home or business and watch the live or recorded footage from anywhere. It works like a smart security guard that records what it sees and stores those videos safely so you can check on your property even when you're away. The system automatically saves every video clip into S3-compatible object storage, which acts like an unlimited, secure digital warehouse in the cloud. Using this storage means your recordings are kept safe even if your camera or local hard drive breaks, and you never run out of space. Best of all, S3 storage lets you quickly pull up any old video from your phone without needing to manage complicated servers or worry about losing important footage.
