FREMONT, Calif., Feb. 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Procera
Networks, Inc. today announced a joint solution with Brocade, a
leader in the transition to new IP network infrastructures, that
combines Brocade's Envision Fabric visibility product line with
Procera's eVolution Virtual Experience Probe to give mobile
operators much greater visibility and real-time access to deeper
network, subscriber, and traffic intelligence. It's been designed
in response to demand for better understanding of subscriber
behaviors and how this impacts the OTT services they use.
The new solution highlights the growing need from operators for
broader and deeper contextual insights about network traffic and
subscriber experience. This is made possible via Procera's
eVolution Virtual Experience Probe. By focusing on subscriber
service and application usage behavior, rather than simply on
characteristics of overall network performance, the eVolution probe
can pull much deeper insights from subscriber traffic which can
then be used for advanced QoE management and the delivery of highly
differentiated offerings. It's capable of identifying:
- over 2800 over-the-top applications,
- types of devices in use,
- locations involved,
- routes and peering links traversed,
- and subscriber service plans.
eVolution is a virtualized probe that runs as a VNF on industry
standard hardware. It's designed to scale in order to meet the
ever-changing traffic requirements of today's 4G evolved packet
core networks. eVolution takes advantage of Procera's PacketLogic/V
software to guide operators through optimizing their network
investments, improving the overall subscriber quality of
experience, and also identifying new revenue generating
opportunities.
"Our work with Brocade really goes to demonstrate the
versatility of our PacketLogic/V software for network and
subscriber analytics," said John
McNamara, Vice President, OEM and SI Sales, at Procera
Networks. "Operators are relying on Procera's network and
subscriber analytics more than ever to prioritize how they go about
delivering a solid customer experience. PacketLogic/V gives them
much better insights into the areas of improvement that are most
important to subscribers."
Brocade's Envision Fabric network visibility technology combines
hardware and software packet brokers with a scalable,
software-based session director. Brocade also offers a
full-featured Virtual Packet Broker. The Envision Fabric portfolio
brings the scalability, agility and flexibility of NFV to network
visibility, and provides flow aggregation, replication,
load-balancing, filtering and traffic optimization capabilities
with an open architecture.
Brocade Visibility Manager is an intuitive "single pane of
glass" management interface for managing and collecting network
wide analytics from all hardware and software elements in the
solution. Procera's eVolution integrates with the Envision Fabric
via the Open API Framework to provide visibility into Over-The-Top
(OTT) applications.
"Our work with Procera is an important part of our plan to
provide our customers clear visibility into Over-The-Top (OTT)
application traffic on their networks," said Ravi Medikonda, VP/GM of Network Visibility and
Analytics at Brocade. "As mobile networks evolve towards 5G, there
is an important need for operators to provide differentiated
offerings that cooperate with OTT applications. This allows them to
create new revenue growth opportunities to offset the stagnation in
user and bandwidth revenues."
