VSS Monitoring: Have Your 10G Network and Keep Your 1G Monitoring Tools

Have you noticed that your network complexity is escalating? Data traffic is exploding, new and sophisticated threats are searching for weaknesses, and networks are moving to 10G - and the move to 40G and on to 100G is coming fast. As the volume of traffic increases on your 10G network links, it outstrips both the bandwidth of 1G tool interfaces and the processing speed of the tools - resulting in tool oversubscription. When tools are oversubscribed, packets are dropped and analysis is hampered, compromising performance diagnostics and security. With VSS systems, your analytics, security, and WAN acceleration tools can get the traffic of interest from 10G connections and not be saturated with unwanted traffic. VSS systems filter traffic to a manageable flow rate to ensure that 1G monitoring device interfaces are not overwhelmed by the increased line rate.

Common Misconceptions in Mobile Application Development

Companies recognize opportunities to reach new customers and improve the customer experience with mobile applications. The company who succeeds in having their service literally “in the pocket” of their customer gains a distinct advantage in building customer loyalty. But developing mobile applications requires an investment of time and resources that few businesses can afford. Kony Solutions provides a unique approach to application development, distribution and maintenance that reduces costs and time-to-market, while “future proofing” the application against the inevitable updates and refinements to mobile devices and operating systems.

One of the most daunting is how to cost effectively deploy, manage and support mobile devices and provide an optimal user experience, especially when budgets are tight, staffing levels are fl at and uptime is critical.
