New SteelCentral NetShark and NetProfiler
solutions help to meet the growing demand for application
performance as the number of connected people and applications
increase on ever-expanding networks
Riverbed Technology (NASDAQ:RVBD), the leader in application
performance infrastructure, today announced new SteelCentral
network performance management (NPM) solutions specifically
designed to provide visibility to applications across the hybrid
enterprise – data centers with a mix of both public and private
networks and a combination of on-premises and SaaS/cloud apps,
which is fast becoming the new normal. The new and updated
SteelCentral NPM appliances – NetShark and NetProfiler – provide
faster and more granular views of the performance of both
on-premises and cloud applications. This is essential to meet the
growing demands of application performance for more users connected
to more networks that is the continual state of IT today.

Hybrid architectures and SaaS applications bring significant
benefits to organizations but, at the same time, create challenges
for CIOs who need full visibility across all networks and
applications and must deliver an optimal and consistent end user
experience – regardless of where the application or network
resources reside. In addition, as employees add networked
devices to the IT environment, each device adds to connection
counts and network flows. Gartner, Inc. forecasts that 4.9 billion
connected “things” will be in use in 2015, up 30% from 2014, and
will reach 25 billion by 2020 – a five-fold increase in just five
years, bringing a corresponding increase in connection counts and
network flows to an already overburdened and extremely complex
network infrastructure.
Today’s applications are making more connections to deliver the
same data. Browsers and servers are getting smarter about how they
break up and access data and this creates more connections. Web
pages are getting content from more and different places – like
ads, Google maps, social media links – and this also increases
connection counts. Also, certain protocols, such as Microsoft’s
protocol for O365 and Exchange, create more connections. The new
SteelCentral solution enhancements provide the increased storage,
memory, and power that Riverbed’s customers need to monitor this
expanding environment of increasing connections and flows as
required by the hybrid enterprise.
“As enterprises embrace BYOD and modern web, mobile, and SaaS
applications, the amount of traffic on the network grows
exponentially, so visibility becomes more important than ever,”
said Mike Sargent, senior vice president and general manager,
SteelCentral at Riverbed. “With so much business depending on the
flawless performance of applications and networks, companies need
to prevent outages rather than troubleshoot them and that’s exactly
what these faster SteelCentral solutions enable.”
SteelCentral Solutions Provide More Scale for Hybrid
Enterprises
The new Riverbed NPM appliances announced today give IT teams
the application visibility and control they need in hybrid IT
environments, and as more people and devices are connected to the
network.
The new NetProfiler appliances and features provide software and
licensing changes that significantly increase scale across the
board for NetProfiler users. The new NetProfiler appliances:
- Support twice the number of
de-duplicated flows per minute (FPM) on a smaller hardware
footprint
- Support twice the reporting devices per
flow record; collate and de-duplicate flow information from up to
10 devices per single flow record for a more granular view of
network performance
- Support 10x the number of analytics
policies
- Bundle analytics licenses with
enterprise and standard NetProfiler licenses so all customers get
proactive anomaly detection and early warning notification
- Cover triple the number of end-user
locations in the Services Dashboard
The new NetShark appliances are available in three models – the
low-end 2170, mid-range 4170, and the high-end, modular 6170 – all
with the following performance enhancements:
- Larger, redundant system and packet
storage (up to 72TB of packet storage)
- Significantly more memory (32/64GB) for
higher flow export rates to NetProfiler
- Higher 10G port density
- NetShark Virtual Edition is also now
available on Microsoft Hyper-V
SteelCentral Flow Gateway, which provides the flow collection
and de-duplication for NetProfiler, adds a new
two-million-flows-per-minute licensing tier to support the higher
flow counts within NetProfiler with a smaller hardware footprint.
New versions of the SteelCentral NetExpress all-in-one network
performance-monitoring appliance for small- and mid-size
enterprises are also available.
