| Visibility is essential to manage, analyze, and secure the complex system that is the IT infrastructure. Traditional approaches to network, application, and security management are breaking down in the face of trends including convergence, mobility, and consumerization of IT. With the growing volume of data, and with the mobility of users, devices, and applications, monitoring tools such as systems used for application performance management (APM), customer experience management (CEM), data loss prevention (DLP), deep packet inspection (DPI), intrusion detection systems (IDS), intrusion prevention systems (IPS), network performance management (NPM), network analysis, and packet capture devices, are struggling to provide accurate and timely analysis. This is because traditionally tools would directly attach into the production network through TAPs or through mirror/SPAN ports. However it can be costly to proliferate tools wherever critical data exists in the infrastructure and can lead to several challenges.
Worldwide, enterprises and public sector organizations leverage the Gigamon Visibility Fabric architecture in their remote locations or distributed processing centers, data centers and headquarters, or campus locations to:
• Gain pervasive and intelligent visibility for real-time insights
• Reduce expenses by simplifying operations and centralizing monitoring
• Eliminate contention among tools and IT departments for access to data
• Optimize tool performance for greater ROI
This white paper explains how this new approach provides pervasive visibility across campus, branch, virtualized and, ultimately, SDN islands to help better manage, analyze, and secure the network. |
