> Single camera per instance (e.g. One Docker container per camera). One camera per Docker instance? This is going to eat up hardware resources like Fat Albert.
There is next to zero extra memory overhead on Linux, as the static parts are shared. Computational overhead is also linear with work, which would mostly be the case regardless.
I don't like the idea of having one docker per camera though.. But I'll give it a try.

To add on to this -- the about page acknowledges how "many are confused" about the name but effectively brushes it off because "kerberos is a good name", then "it's not actually kerberos, but kerberos.io", followed by "it's a mouthful so we'll just say kerberos" (and the HN submission just says kerberos) I feel like the name really might be an impediment to the project. Not that people can't ever re-use names, but th…
It actually is a really good name. But yeah, I had the same confusion.
Does it support Kerberos authentication?

Usurping a vaguely familiar and confusing thing that is prevalent seems to be a bad choice.
Should I trust a whole image from docker hub with access to a security camera?
No. I'd rather trust a Linux distribution to do a reproducible build.

How does Fat Albert eat up hardware resources? Also, don’t you need to know the specs of the individual container instances before determining it will be resource starved on the host? I have an off-the-shelf CCTV DVR that supports 4k with up to 8 cameras, but it struggles with more than 4.

A better name for a multi-headed security system would be Cerberus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerberus
Interesting! I was just setting up Shinobi but this looks really good too. I don't like the idea of having one docker per camera though.. But I'll give it a try.
My major issue with Shinobi was each stream is processed by ffmpeg and I had 10+ cameras all requiring 10% cpu each to handle any object/motion detection. The cameras had object/motion detection functionality built in so I figured it made more sense to just do that work on the camera and not on CPU. I also tried offloading some jobs to GPU and that was not working properly, so I tried Nvidia Jetson and still no dice.
