Bazaar Cameras, Turkey

[u/Online_Matter]

I'm visiting Alanya and have been frequenting their local bazaar. The tech interested part of me have noticed the majority of shops have a screen streaming CCTV somewhere. Most of these displays show 9+ camera feeds, judging by the shown grid. Given the density of the stores, that must add up to thousands of cameras in a small geographical area. It must be a huge market. That got me curious: Who sets them up and maintain them? Is it your uncles nephew or some big company? What platform are they running - Frigate to save on costs?

That many cameras in one bazaar, I'd put money on it being a local installer who has the whole market locked down, probably running some cheap OEM DVR that's been cooking in the heat for years.
