The proliferation of communication services that we depend on every day makes managing computer networks more important than ever. The increasing security, availability, and performance demands of these services suggest that these network-management problems must be solved in real time—and inside the network. In this new era, network management requires a fundamentally new approach. Instead of performing offline analysis of network traces, future networks should make real-time, closed-loop decisions—to block unwanted traffic, to reroute traffic to avoid congestion, and more. This talk explores how to…
Selector Analytics is a platform for operational intelligence of multi-cloud infrastructure and performance-sensitive managed services. By adopting an AI/ML-based data analytics approach, Selector Analytics provides actionable multi-dimensional insights to network, cloud, and application operators. In the presentation, Selector will demonstrate how operators receive actionable insights through collaborative platforms such as Slack and Microsoft teams without spending time writing complex SQL queries and drilling down to current issues with a few clicks. Selector Analytics provides this information by correlating config change events, alerts, metrics, events, and…
Abstract: P4 is a domain-specific language for programming and specifying packet-processing systems. It is based on an elegant design with high-level abstractions like parsers and match-action pipelines that can be compiled to efficient implementations in software or hardware. This talk will discuss how P4 can be used to provide a new foundation for computer networks, with end-to-end network programmability and formal verification of network behavior using static and dynamic techniques.
Enterprise organizations will continue to keep workloads on-prem while making these workloads integrate seamlessly with public cloud. As cloud becomes an integral part of the IT infrastructure, hybrid multi-cloud will become the default configuration for these organizations. As these organizations adopt hybrid multi-cloud, a few challenges emerge: 1. Incompatible connectivity options with each cloud provider 2. Manual and tedious deployment and management 3. Security is an after-thought 4. Lack of automation for routine maintenance Arrcus ACE virtual routers support customers to accelerate cloud adoption and…
We spend our days on voice and video conferencing and performance is a constant struggle, especially with the rise in popularity of hybrid work. With apps like Microsoft Teams hosted outside of traditional infrastructure how can you get actionable insight to solve issues faster or quickly isolate the root cause–even if it’s outside your sphere of influence. Join AppNeta by Broadcom Software to see what active monitoring can do for these key apps that enable business-critical collaboration. Speed up MTTR or prove your innocence when…
Modern enterprise IT teams are tasked with managing networks that are constantly in a state of transformation. These migrations are complex, requiring new types of visibility into applications, traffic flows, distributed locations, or include managing cloud workflows in order to maintain good end-user experience. Increasingly apps and network delivery paths are moving out of IT’s control, but remain IT’s responsibility when problems arise. AppNeta by Broadcom Software has been helping the largest enterprises in the world manage performance through these transformations. Join us to learn…
While many of today’s networks have redundant network paths, the Out-of-Band (OOB) and Management traffic for those networks is sometimes entirely dependent on the state of the network it is managing. Providing an independent path for that traffic is critical to assuring strong uptime and fast remediation to outages. In this demo we will explore how Opengear combines Lighthouse Central Management, LTE and our NetOps functionality within our console servers to deliver an Independent Management Plane for network infrastructure.
More and more container environments are going into production where there is sensitive data to protect, and PCI or other types of compliance needs to be ensured. In a cloud native environment, traditional security tools don’t provide the visibility and protection your enterprise needs. And today you need to protect not only the runtime environment but your entire software supply chain. So cloud native security starts with the build and test phase and extends to runtime protection to protect against zero day exploits. With a…
NetOps teams operating Data Center and WAN networks are challenged by endless noise and reactive processes. Hybrid and multi-cloud networks present additional new difficulties. The infrastructure is mixed, with diverse telemetry formats and sources, and the tooling for detection and troubleshooting is siloed across multiple vendors and infrastructure providers. On top of all this, the pressure is greater than ever to maintain peak availability and performance for critical applications. In this PoC, Augtera will demonstrate how machine learning can transform NetOps from reactive to proactive….
