Network Optix Nx Witness integration for Ayonix video analytics
In short
Ayonix publishes an Nx Witness integration route and asks customers to confirm plugin availability, supported versions and licensing. Network Optix exposes analytics through the Nx Metadata SDK, which supports analytics plugins producing object metadata and events that Nx clients can display and search.
Network Optix supports third-party analytics through the Nx Metadata SDK and its plugin architecture, allowing an analytics engine to produce object metadata and events that the Nx Server stores and Nx clients present. Ayonix lists Nx Witness as an integration route with an explicit confirmation caveat, so this site records it as an engineering project rather than a shipped plugin.
Compatibility
What is supported, stated explicitly
Every mechanism carries an explicit state. No ambiguous checkmarks are used, and no certification or marketplace status is claimed without evidence.
| Mechanism | State | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Analytics plugin producing object metadata | Available through integration project | The Nx Metadata SDK supports plugins that emit object and event metadata to the Nx Server. |
| Event delivery to Nx clients | Available through integration project | Analytics events can be surfaced in the Nx client event workflow. |
| Camera mapping | Available through integration project | Analytics streams are associated with Nx camera resources during commissioning. |
| Video navigation from an event | Available through integration project | Timestamped events allow the operator to open the camera at the trigger moment. |
| Metadata search in the Nx client | Available through integration project | Where object metadata is produced, Nx search over that metadata is part of the platform. Scope confirmed per project. |
| Health reporting | Available through integration project | Plugin and stream status reporting is agreed during design. |
| Network Optix certification or marketplace listing | Not supported | No certification or listing is claimed; no evidence has been supplied. |
What each state means
- Available through integration project
- The integration is delivered as a scoped engineering project against the vendor SDK. Plugin availability, supported versions and licensing are confirmed with Ayonix before design.
- Not supported
- Not available, and not on the current roadmap.
Operators
What this changes for the operator
- Operators stay in the Nx client they already use.
- Analytics events appear in the Nx event workflow with the associated camera.
- Where object metadata is produced, it becomes searchable through the Nx client.
- Opening an event takes the operator to the camera at the trigger time.
- Nx deployments running on edge hardware keep both video and analytics local.
Constraints
Limitations and the integration checklist
Limitations
- Available mechanisms depend on Nx Witness version and the SDK generation in use.
- No certification or marketplace status is claimed.
- Running analytics and Nx Server on the same edge hardware requires sizing that accounts for both workloads.
- Metadata search scope depends on what the plugin emits and is confirmed per project.
Questions to settle before design
- Which Nx Witness version is deployed, and which SDK generation does it expect?
- Has Ayonix confirmed plugin availability and licensing for that version?
- Will analytics run on the same hardware as Nx Server, and has it been sized for both?
- What object metadata is needed for the search use case, if any?
- How are analytics streams mapped to Nx camera resources?
- Is clock synchronisation verified?
Frequently asked questions
Is there a published Ayonix plugin for Nx Witness?
This site does not claim one, because no evidence of a published or certified plugin has been supplied. Ayonix publishes an Nx Witness integration route and asks customers to confirm availability and licensing for their environment.
Can we run analytics on the same box as Nx Server?
Often yes, particularly in edge deployments, but the hardware must be sized for both workloads. Under-sizing produces dropped frames that degrade detection quality in ways that look like an analytics fault rather than a capacity one.
Does metadata become searchable in the Nx client?
Nx provides search over analytics metadata as a platform capability. What is searchable depends on what the plugin emits, which is agreed during the integration project rather than assumed.

Scope a Network Optix Nx Witness integration
Integration scoping starts with confirming your product version, the mechanisms it exposes, and what your operators actually need to see. Send those details and an engineer will tell you what is achievable in your environment.
