List of Storages
-------------------------------

FindFace Multi uses the following data storages:

* Tarantool-based feature vector database that stores object feature vectors and recognition events: ``/opt/findface-multi/data/findface-tarantool-server``
* PostgreSQL-based main system database that stores internal system data, records, and user accounts: ``/opt/findface-multi/data/postgresql``
* The directory that stores photos uploaded to records, video files, full frames of events and counters, and object thumbnails: ``/opt/findface-multi/data/findface-upload/uploads``
* The directory that stores such event artifacts as normalized object images: ``/opt/findface-multi/data/findface-multi-legacy/uploads``

  .. note:: 
     It also stores video chunks if you are using :ref:`Video Recorder <architecture>`. 

* (Only with Video Recorder) MongoDB-based database storage: ``/opt/findface-multi/data/mongodb/`` that stores meta-information of the video chunks, including their exact location in the ``/opt/findface-multi/data/findface-multi-legacy/uploads``.


Feature Vector Database Galleries
------------------------------------

There are the following default galleries in the Tarantool-based feature vector database:

* ``ffsec_body_events``: feature vectors extracted from bodies detected in the video.
* ``ffsec_body_objects``: feature vectors extracted from body images uploaded to the record index.
* ``ffsec_body_clusters``: centroids of body clusters.
* ``ffsec_car_events``: feature vectors extracted from vehicles detected in the video.
* ``ffsec_car_objects``: feature vectors extracted from vehicle images uploaded to the record index.
* ``ffsec_car_clusters``: centroids of vehicle clusters.
* ``ffsec_face_events``: feature vectors extracted from faces detected in the video.
* ``ffsec_face_objects``: feature vectors extracted from face images uploaded to the record index.
* ``ffsec_face_clusters``: centroids of face clusters.
* ``ffsec_user_face``: feature vectors extracted from the FindFace Multi users' photos for face-based authentication.
