LOS GATOS, CA , a developer of Evolved DPI solutions providing
the most accurate traffic awareness, control and protection for
complex networks, today announced PacketLogic PL10000, the latest
in the PacketLogic family of products and currently the industry's
highest-performance DPI platform. With up to 80Gbps of throughput,
PacketLogic PL10000 is purpose-built with Tier-1 broadband network
deployments -- both wired and wireless -- in mind. With its
introduction, service providers now have a platform that will
support millions of subscribers while giving them the business
intelligence, service creation, network visibility and control
required to successfully roll out new revenue-generating services
and optimize network performance. Generally available now, the
PacketLogic PL10000 already has four service provider customers
from around the world and is currently operating in production
networks.
"As a Procera customer since 2004, we are extremely pleased with
our experience with PacketLogic, and as our business has grown to
the point where we needed larger PacketLogic systems, it was an
easy decision to start upgrading to PL10000," said Jens Persson,
vice president of R&D at Com Hem, Scandinavia's largest cable
operator. "DPI has become a critical element in our network and
enables us to offer our customers the best possible service."
The PacketLogic PL10000 was designed as a carrier-grade platform
to give service providers the scalability, reliability and
flexibility they need to meet network requirements for today and
tomorrow. It has four times the capacity of its nearest competitor,
enabling a single deployment to handle millions of broadband
service subscribers. This increased capacity, in combination with
pertinent asymmetric traffic support and the "5 9s" reliability
that carriers demand, enables deployment of PacketLogic anywhere in
the network. Incorporating DRDL(TM), Procera's traffic
identification engine, it also has a host of features that deliver
industry leading accuracy.
"The rapid growth in IP traffic from applications like P2P,
video, gaming and social networking is already impacting
performance and profitability on broadband networks unprepared to
effectively monetize their investments," said James F. Brear,
Procera's president and CEO. "In order to make intelligent business
decisions, deploy new services and effectively manage and control
their network traffic, these service providers first need a
powerful combination of performance and accurate visibility. The
PacketLogic PL10000 was specifically designed to fulfill these
pressing needs."
In addition to its enhanced accuracy and performance,
PacketLogic PL10000 is now shipping with version 12 of
PacketLogic's firmware. This latest version of PacketLogic's
firmware delivers all the functionality of previous versions while
adding new features unique to the PacketLogic platform. Version 12
is shipping with all PacketLogic models, enabling the entire
product family to co-exist and deliver the same advanced
functionality. The new features solve two critical objectives --
scalability and viable support of asymmetric traffic:
Flow Synchronization -- Enables the exchange of flow information across
multiple PacketLogic systems with minimum overhead traffic. This
enables bi-directional identification, even with asymmetric traffic,
which increases the number of identification criteria and thereby the
accuracy. It also makes the PacketLogic PL10000 the only DPI platform
that can be deployed anywhere in the network without having to modify
network architecture. PacketLogic Flow Sync generates very low
administrative traffic (2 to 6 percent) compared with other
architectures (25 to 50 percent).
Queue Synchronization -- Synchronize queues, meaning shaping rules,
over several PacketLogic systems, which enables multiple PacketLogic
systems to share shaping rules and enforce them over the entire
network. This is critical for large Tier-1 networks that need to
incorporate many systems to serve millions of subscribers.
New Statistics Engine -- This new engine is hierarchical and aggregates
data in several tiers to deliver an instant response, another key
requirement in order to identify and resolve issues immediately. If,
for example, anomalies are detected, an administrator can dive down to
visit the specific traffic details, thus providing scale for millions
of subscribers over multiple systems.
"Service providers are looking to use DPI to increase
intelligence in the network and take full advantage of the enormous
investment they are making in their network infrastructure," said
David Vorhaus, an analyst at leading firm The Yankee Group. "As
operators' visions for the technology and its applications broaden,
the industry must address stringent management, ease-of-use,
performance and reliability requirements for deployment in Tier-1
networks."
PacketLogic PL10000 is an integrated chassis-based solution
based on industry standard AdvancedTCA. This approach, compared to
the clustering of multiple appliances, reduces potential problems
for the service provider and enables seamless upgrades and
integration. The PacketLogic PL10000 comes in two chassis sizes; a
five-slot, 5U chassis and a 12U, 14-slot chassis. There are four
line card types:
-- System Management (SM) module -- for systems administration like
the user interface
-- I/O line card (IO) -- 8 SFP+ interfaces for GbE/10GbE line-rate
packet processing
-- Flow Processing (FP) module -- more than 5Gbps Full Duplex per
module
-- Load Balancer (LB) module -- balances traffic internally between
processors and FP modules
The PacketLogic PL10000 is available now, with advance versions
already being tested in production networks. Interested parties can
find out more by visiting www.proceranetworks.com/pl10000 or
stopping by Procera's booth SL2321 at the NXTcomm conference and
tradeshow, taking place June 16-19 at the Las Vegas Convention
Center.
