Application aware Multi data import 3-click analysis collaboration of business units Business value of IT wireless LAN and network TAPS
Applications today make up the critical glue that helps our organisation tick. The solution must be able to understand the intracacies of how the applications form the organisations business services.
Bitrate’s solution set includes:
The solution set that the organisation uses should incorporate multiple data imports including:
Finger pointing is well known in the IT industry but with the correct monitoring in place all stake holders are on the same page. The responsible entity just gets down to their duty faster.
Root cause analysis is critical for an organisation to get on top of problems as they occur. To help reduce MTTR (mean time to repair) an intuitive and simple 3-click analysis needs to be available to speed up the process.
This also referes to the solutions intuitive interface and ease of use.
This is probably the most important aspect of the solution. The network monitoring and management solution should be able to provide value to the business daily.
If the solution monitors all applications in an organisation and intricately understands each tier within each application then it could be used to determine efficiencies of processes and efficency of delivery to end users or clients. This will be used in the organisation “continuous service improvement” or CSI projects.
The data gleaned should be used to determine where organisational investment should be made, for example; in the network or in the data centre infrustructure. Once the investment is made it should be possible to use the solution to record the improvement.
Often the wireless LAN is forgotten in the monitoring solution but this is an aspect of many networks that is growing imensely. Wireless LAN also happens to be the area of the networks that experiences the most issues. Added to this is the security around wireless LAN is most often forgotten but it is the most vulnerable. Why? Because wireless is accesable whereever there is signal!

There are many challenges around deep packet inspection and network recording. These include; span port contention, monitoring equipment not able to cope with traffic load, multiple tools needing access, security of data, geographically dispersed and many more.
Essentially network engineers, monitoring departments and security teams all need access to traffic within the network environment. The network monitoring and management solution needs a foundation which provides this with ease. Gartner calls this solution a “Network Packet Broker”.
