Effective network and application performance management requires comprehensive visibility into the traffic flows on your network to understand the end-user service experience. Organizations need to analyze network traffic to effectively manage bandwidth. This ensures the quality of critical business applications. It also provides greater understanding of the impact to resources and all the interdependencies across networks, servers, applications and users.
Organizations need answers to questions, such as which applications consume the most network bandwidth and who is using the bandwidth ? Are the users consuming network resources with authorized applications ? Which class of service priority should be assigned to each application? Analyzing NetFlow and TCP/IP traffic data intelligence at a very finite level provides answers for all of these questions. It facilitates a superior level of monitoring, investigation and security. ServicePilot offers solutions that make it easy to get a comprehensive view of your network traffic, find the bottlenecks, and identify the bandwidth hogs.
Intuitive reports provide quick insights
into application traffic by interface
ServicePilot 360 is a complete solution for traffic analysis and bandwidth management that supports NetFlow, IPFIX, sFlow and jFlow:
- Collects IP network traffic data from routers and switches, aggregates and analyzes it to give network operations teams the visibility they need into network traffic.
- Flexible interfaces with many sort and drill-down options to allow network staff and management to have the reporting they need, by interface, user, application, host, conversation, protocol and service.
- Alerts can be defined by various criteria, so you can be notified when bandwidth consumption exceeds defined thresholds and quickly determine who is consuming the bandwidth.
- Provides a wide variety for monitoring traffic and bandwidth, such as: top talkers, flows matrix, interface utilization, geographical maps, and traffic by resources, applications, protocols, and zones.
- Efficiently troubleshoot and resolve the cause of application congestion, improve capacity planning, and ensure quality of service.

NBA for z/OS provides end-to-end real time monitoring of the issues related to mainframe TCP/IP response time, congestion, and application and network performance.
- Utilizes Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology to analyze traffic or connections and provide alerts based on user-defined rules.
- Combines network and application data flow information to identify the "who" behind the "what" using Network Behavior Analysis (NBA) mechanisms to pinpoint the source of application performance problems.
- Enables you to rapidly detect, diagnose, resolve, and prevent TCP/IP problems on z/OS networks
- Consumes minimal resources, is compliant with RACF security standards, and is certified for z/OS.
- Integrates with existing framework solutions such as HP OpenView™, CA Unicenter™, IBM Tivoli™, etc.
