How much processing power is needed for a camera server? (lemmy.world)

I was thinking of setting up a home surveilance system using Frigate, and integrating it with Home Assistant. I'd probably have somewhere on the order of 10-15 1080p 30fps cameras. I'm not sure what components I should get for the server, as I am unsure of the actual processing requirements.

EDIT 1: For some extra information, I did find that Frigate has a recommended hardware page.

For Frigate especially, you are going to want to use multiple Coral TPUs to handle inferencing. I really can't speak to the CPU requirements but I know a lot of people like using the Intel NUCs with mic tier processors.
