Introduction
As businesses increasingly rely on applications hosted in complex data center and
cloud infrastructures, visibility into application performance has become even more
critical, and the dependency a network has on this visibility has become paramount.
Ultimately, it is a smooth and efficient end user experience that ensures customer
satisfaction, and visibility into this interaction is key to ensuring business success.
NetPod is a robust Application-aware Network Performance Management
(AA-NPM) solution, and is ideal for data centers with virtual and physical servers,
as shown in Figure 1. Passively collecting network traffic, with auto-discovery of all
applications, servers and clients on the network, NetPod analyzes critical areas such as
transactions,
usage and end user experience.

The solution at work
The NetPod solution is housed in a 4U rack-mount appliance,
enhancing data center consolidation by reducing size, weight and
power (SWaP) requirements. Packet capture can be executed either
immediately or at a designated time of relevance, with the data
securely stored in the NetPod device.
With automated multi-point collection, users can retrieve data from
multiple NetPod appliances and automatically display this trace
file-level data through a web interface using NetPod’s transactional
analysis tool. NetPod provides detailed packet-level analysis with
integrated application-contextual suggestions and brings the ability to
do detailed packet level forensic analytics to the data center network
teams.
Application visibility into your network infrastructure matters
The NetPod solution collects, analyzes and visualizes live traffic from
the network and application. It empowers network and infrastructure
operators to immediately isolate faults that impact application
performance and end user experience across web, middleware,
database and network tiers. This application-aware network visibility
solution can increase the availability and effectiveness of your missioncritical applications and ensure business uptime.
