Abstract

Even the most intelligent network needs management to visualize application traffic flows at the network level and know how well application service levels are being met. The CA Application-Driven Performance Management solution leverages key performance indicators from Cisco’s Intelligent WAN solutions, which add value to your network through application visibility and control, application acceleration (WAN optimization), and intelligent path selection. By enabling you to gain visibility into application performance from a network perspective, you can make proactive, data-driven decisions regarding network capacity, QoS policies, infrastructure investments and planned application rollouts.

› Cisco IVT Certified

› Know which hosts and or applications are consuming the most bandwidth

› Data-driven insight to validate whether current QoS policies are effective

› Accurately determine how much capacity is needed now and for future rollouts

› Understand whether critical apps are being prioritized over less important traffic

› Monitor for anomalous or malicious traffic that can impact the performance of your network

› Proactively decide whether your shared network can handle increasing voice and video traffic
