Ovum Publishes Research Note on Arbor Networks SP Insight Big Data Analytics Solution
January 2017 by Arbor Networks
Arbor Networks Inc., the security division of NETSCOUT, announced that Ovum has published a research note on Arbor SP Insight,
a new software-based extension to its Arbor Networks SP platform (Arbor SP) that
expands and enhances network operators’ traffic analytics and
distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack forensics capabilities.
The majority of the world’s internet service providers, along with data centre and
large network operators, rely on Arbor Networks’ SP platform for network-wide
visibility, DDoS detection, forensics, traffic engineering, advanced peering and
transit analysis. Arbor SP helps these customers maintain peak service performance
and availability, protect their infrastructure, intelligently expand their network
capacity, understand their operational costs and uncover new service opportunities.
With the launch of Arbor SP Insight, operators can further enhance their network
visibility and make more informed operational, security and business decisions
faster than ever before.
Ovum: Arbor Networks adds big data analytics to the SP portfolio
According to Ovum, Arbor SP Insight "will provide Arbor users with the big data and
analytical capabilities needed to work more effectively with their network and
threat data. The data lake side of the SP Insight operation will add long-term
storage of flow data and allow multi-dimensional, visual analysis across the data
management lifecycle. It will provide the capacity to store raw data for as long as
needed and support both real-time and historical analysis. The complete solution
will be delivered using a common central console approach for SP and SP Insight, and
will offer the single-pane-of-glass methodology that enterprise organisations
require."
