NeoFinder. There is a windows version too, but a different name. Great for cataloging/ indexing disks, server volumes, dvds, cds, etc. Can even include a thumbnail photo, text sample, & metadata. Powerful search tools. Easy to use. Not a subscription. Both Mac & Windows versions use same database. Recommended. Mac : https://cdfinder.de/ Windows version: http://www.abemeda.de/.

Not sure this is everything you need, NeoFinder. Https://cdfinder.de/ Is meant for keeping a catalog of removable media so has no expectation of being connected to the source volume to operate. Source: almost 2 years ago
I've found that neither PreRoll Post or YoYotta are very intuitive or useful for cataloguing LTO. I discovered NeoFinder (cdfinder.de) a few years ago and it's incredible and so useful. It creates a catalog file that you easily search or browse similarly to how you would in Finder. It can also create thumbnails and previews for photos/video/audio/etc. It's been bulletproof and I've even used it to catalog... Source: almost 2 years ago
I don't know if it's the way I had Bridge set up, but it was desperately slow showing catalogues of images - if it cached the db I didn't notice any speed boost in reading from it that's for sure.

On my Mac I use NeoFinder and it's fantastic - fast, extensive and capable of handling a bucketload of file formats. They have a sister product AbeMedia for Windows. I've never used it, but if it's half as good NeoFinder it will be what you're looking for. Source: over 2 years ago

I have all of my photos (with the exception of smartphone photos... ugh) in a nicely constructed set of folders \photos\yyyy\yyyymmmdd\ then the folder made by the camera, etc. I've got a small python script to generate the folders. I use Digikam[1] to do facial recognition and tagging on them. It's finally gotten to the point where it doesn't crash all the time writing metadata, and the facial recognition is... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
I use digikam for my own personal library. I’m not sure if it’s able to be run from a server, but I know you can hook up a NAS to it to manage it. Can tag photos, rank, organize, etc. Source: about 1 year ago
Check out digiKam. It has photo editing tools as well, but the main focus is photo management. Also it is free and open source. Source: almost 2 years ago
But with that many photos, I'd suggest a more fully featured digital asset management (DAM) program. Lightroom (paid), DigiKam, or DarkTable (both free) are good choices. PhoTool's IMatch (paid) also uses exiftool and is extremely powerful with regards to metadata. Source: about 2 years ago
