What is local vs cloud storage for security cameras?

Local storage saves footage on a memory card inside the camera. Cloud storage uploads footage to the internet so you can watch it from anywhere.

Your security camera records video and needs somewhere to save it. Local storage means the video is saved on a device you own, like an SD card inside the camera or a hard drive at your home. Cloud storage means the video is saved on a company's servers on the internet. Which one you choose depends on what matters most to you.
