Data Centre Monitoring Challenges
Visibility Challenges
• Tools overloaded but underutilised– Too many tools but too few SPANs and TAPs
– How to monitor 10G networks (not to mention 40/100)?
– How to monitor more of the network?
– Improve ROI and TCO on expensive tool sets
• Stay ahead of troubleshooting– Get the right traffic to the right tools at the right time!
– Use proactive tools
• Reduce cost and improve ROI

Visibility – Anue can help
• Send all tools all and only the data they need– Accurately share SPANs and TAPs
– Avoid expensive, cascaded TAP deployment
– Monitor 10G networks with existing 1G tools
– Monitor more of the network with unlimited aggregation
– Improve ROI and TCO on expensive tool sets
• Stay ahead of troubleshooting– Proactively send traffic to the right tools based on
changes in the network
– Dynamically put underutilized tools to work
• Reduce cost and improve ROI

3 Stage Filtering
Process Challenges
• How do you add, change and manage tools today?
• Seamlessly integrate into existing processes– Process - compliance, security, SLA, reporting …
– Systems – network mgmt, authentication, etc…
– Saves time, money and headaches
• Keep up with growing change and complexity– Networks, applications, virtualization
– Increasing compliance & security requirements
– Error prone manual processes that do not scale
• How to reduce risk in the data centre
