The managed service is built around Cydonia, IdentityE2E’s biometric search platform, which is powered by Paravision Search and delivered via IdentityE2E’s AWS Landing Zone Accelerator. The resulting solution enables easy integration, extensive support, and substantial cost savings for highly-regulated public and private sector organizations with complex operational requirements.
As an integration company commited to biometric vendor neutrality, IdentityE2E conducted comprehensive benchmark assessments and practical trials in collaboration with AWS. Our goal was to select the optimal facial recognition system for incorporation into our secure cloud infrastructure, which underpins the Cydonia solution. The choice, Paravision Search, was informed by an independent evaluation of biometric matching efficacy and demonstrated ability to scale and function seamlessly with IdentityE2E’s system.
Some highlights from IdentityE2E’s evaluation of Paravision Search include:
Dramatically Reduced TCO
- Up to 90% cheaper than comparable platforms for certain SLAs.
- The auto scaling-functionality significantly reduces compute costs and enables partners to only pay for necessary compute at all times
- Platform management requires 3-4 engineers for a national-scale solution, as opposed to 10-20 with other comparable platforms.
Extremely Fast, Trusted Automated Instantiation
- Greenfield, national-scale solutions enabling AWS best practice security and compliance to global standards including NIST and CIS can be deployed in under 24 hours.
- Enrolment of 20 million identities is possible in less than 24 hours, as opposed to multiple months with other comparable platforms.
Enterprise Scale and Reliability
- Scaling of gallery size to hundreds of millions of records.
- High resiliency across multiple AWS availability zones.
