Experience-Driven NetOps in Action: The Demo

Written by David Hardman | Jun 22, 2023 4:00:00 PM

Today’s networks are expanding rapidly. It’s no longer just about what you own and control; you also need to account for the internet and third-party cloud and SaaS hosted services. If you want to address problems as soon as they arise, end-to-end visibility is a must.

Enter: Experience-Driven NetOps from Broadcom.

Experience-Driven NetOps helps organizations understand not only network availability and performance, but also the end-user experience across these networks. This allows network operations teams to ensure the delivery of high-quality experiences no matter where the network path goes.

Key elements of Broadcom’s solution were shown at the recent NetOps Virtual Summit, but if you missed it you can now access the on-demand site to see the demo and much more. The demo session at the virtual summit covers two topics:

1. The integration between AppNeta and DX NetOps

By using the unified alarm console, network operations teams can see any issue and drill down into network paths. This specificity allows them to understand the smallest details, including performance across a variety of metrics. Information on data and voice can show where specific issues are happening over time.

Teams can also move from the console to AppNeta in order to pinpoint where connectivity problems originate, showing the exact hop or network that is causing the service issue.

DX NetOps also shows network delivery from a dashboard perspective, offering insight into the overall health of the network delivery paths for an organization. From there you can drill into specific paths - including digging deeper into the topology - to isolate the problem. Detailed reports are shown including network experience capacity projections for ISPs.

2. How organizations assure cloud connectivity and manage across transitions to the cloud

Whether it is from the data center to the cloud, cross-region performance within a cloud provider, multi-cloud environments, and more, Broadcom has you covered. The demo takes a look at a hybrid-cloud scenario, then a multi-cloud environment where network congestion is present and the specific link causing the issue is identified. AppNeta’s cloud connectivity observability can cover all the components of your distributed architecture from your offices, over the internet, and both to and through cloud providers.
