Stream Reolink to Any Cloud Storage
Eliminate expensive NVR hardware and proprietary cloud subscription fees. Point your Reolink cameras and NVRs directly to Rilavek to stream motion clips and recordings straight into Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, or AWS S3.
Your Reolink cameras stream clips offsite immediately. Intruders cannot steal or destroy critical surveillance evidence by seizing on-prem recorder hardware.
Store Reolink recordings on your own terms. Apply automated cloud bucket lifecycle rules to rollover, expire, or archive footage after 30, 90, or 365 days.
Rilavek ingests native FTP and FTPS streams from your Reolink firmware and writes directly into multipart S3 PUTs with TLS encryption and zero disk writes.
Any Reolink camera or NVR with FTP/FTPS capability works out of the box. Whether you have a turret, bullet, PTZ dome, or an 8/16-channel NVR — if your Reolink web interface has an FTP settings page, you can stream directly to your private cloud storage with zero extra hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions about Reolink Cloud Storage
Do Reolink cameras require an on-premises NVR to stream to cloud storage?
No. Reolink IP cameras with FTP client capabilities stream directly over your network to Rilavek without requiring on-site recording servers or proprietary bridge hardware. You can eliminate NVRs entirely or use Rilavek in parallel as an offsite backup.
How do I enter Rilavek credentials into my Reolink camera?
Log in to your Reolink camera's web configuration portal, locate the Network > FTP (or Advanced > FTP) settings page, and input ftp.rilavek.com, port 21, and the credentials generated for your camera sender in Rilavek.
Does this support motion detection clips or 24/7 continuous recording?
Both modes are supported depending on your firmware. Most users configure motion detection or AI event triggers to conserve bandwidth and storage, but cameras set to continuous recording with file split intervals (e.g. 2 to 5 minutes) stream seamlessly 24/7.
Which cloud storage destinations can I use with Reolink?
Any S3-compatible cloud storage destination works out of the box, including Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, AWS S3, Wasabi, Google Cloud Storage, and self-hosted MinIO or RustFS instances.
Is video footage encrypted in transit?
Yes. Cameras supporting FTPS upload encrypted video over TLS. Rilavek processes data through an in-memory buffer directly into multipart S3 PUT requests with zero data retained on intermediate servers.
