Self-Learning Analytics Enable IT to Spot
Anomalies, Improve Service Levels and Reduce Costs
CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today announced a new version of CA
Network Flow Analysis that leverages Cisco’s next-generation
technology to provide IT organizations with application-centric
insights to better spot anomalies, improve service levels and
reduce operational costs.
CA Network Flow Analysis automatically recognizes more than
1,000 applications—quickly giving network managers deep visibility
into application traffic patterns and behavior. The solution also
makes it easy for network managers to create profiles for their
organization’s custom applications.
This insight empowers IT to pinpoint active or potential issues
with service delivery, plan and validate resource needs for new
applications, optimize utilization of network resources, and avoid
unnecessary infrastructure costs.
CA Network Flow Analysis complements these capabilities with
patented anomaly detection that learns about the network over time
and automatically detects and creates alarms for a wide range of
anomalies that can impact performance and create security risks.
This empowers IT to proactively safeguard critical service levels
while reducing the cost and headaches associated with network
troubleshooting.
“Enterprise IT organizations that don’t aggressively evolve
their ability to manage their networks from an application-centric
perspective will inevitably wind up throwing too many staff-hours
at service-level assurance and getting too little in return,” said
John Smith, general manager, infrastructure management, CA
Technologies. “With CA Network Flow Analysis, customers achieve far
superior results with less work—significantly enhancing IT’s
overall ability to deliver more value to the business.”
T-Systems, a global IT services and consulting company
headquartered in Germany, uses CA Network Flow Analysis to provide
application-centric monitoring as a cloud service for its
customers. T-Systems ICT-Monitor extracts data without additional
hardware in the customer environment and provides application
response time for applications like SharePoint and others.
“Application-centric network monitoring has historically
required us to associate applications with known ports, but that
approach is becoming untenable as more applications use HTTP and
dynamic ports,” said Christian Remer Leiter, Product Management APM
at T-Systems. “By giving us the insight we need without depending
on known ports, CA Network Flow Analysis is enabling us to stop
finger-pointing and quickly resolve network-related performance
issues as they arise.”
CA Network Flow Analysis leverages Cisco AVC (Application
Visibility and Control) and NBAR2 (Next Generation Network-Based
Application Recognition) technologies to simplify and integrate the
detection and analysis of application-specific traffic. It also
harvests data directly from network devices—making it more
cost-effective to deploy, maintain and upgrade.
CA Network Flow Analysis has received Cisco’s Interoperability
Verification Test (IVT) certification, validating its support for
AVC.
“Network performance management no longer means simply reporting
top talkers and top traffic loads by port and protocol,” said Jim
Frey, vice president of research, Enterprise Management Associates.
“Network managers must now be able to relate ports and protocols to
specific applications, understand response times for those
applications, and apply analytics to reveal potential issues on a
proactive basis. The latest release of CA's Network Flow Analysis
makes progress on all of these fronts.”
CA Network Flow Analysis embraces CA Technologies
application-driven network performance management model for
managing IT infrastructure, applications and services.
CA Technologies is demonstrating CA Network Flow Analysis this
week at Cisco Live 2014 Milan.
