NETSCOUT gives nGenius a boost​
​
Cybersecurity and performance management leader, NETSCOUT enriches its nGenius performance management solution with a new notification centre to help streamline and automate alerts and contextual workflows to identify and resolve problems faster.
“Performance degradations, application unavailability, and lengthy outages can have a crippling effect on any business,” says Phil Gray, Associate Vice President, Product Management, NETSCOUT. “Organizations need to ensure their users have the best experience possible by avoiding performance issues that can threaten their reputation, mission, and revenue.”
NETSCOUT’s nGeniusONE notification centre focuses IT efforts on the most critical business issues to investigate by categorising alerts for services, applications, servers, and links/locations, providing contextual, actionable, real-time details at a glance. Additionally, Secured Reliable Transport (SRT) supports live video streaming, with extra supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) protocols supporting international utility networks.
“Our customers value how nGeniusONE uniquely addresses real-time visibility and observability needs,” continues Gray. “With this significant update and support for new mission-critical applications, we are providing IT teams with even more time-saving functionality to make it easier to address critical infrastructure performance issues, see problems before they impact the business and continue to provide a high-quality user experience.”
“NETSCOUT’s new notification centre streamlines and automates alerts and contextual workflows to identify and resolve problems faster,” adds Mark Leary, Research Director, Network Observability & Automation, IDC. “This is a huge win for IT teams as it enables them to deliver a better end-user experience while giving them more time to focus on other strategic digital transformation initiatives that provide greater business value.”
NETSCOUT’s Visibility Without Borders platform already supports any application anywhere, including hundreds of voice, video and business data applications in key industries. This new specialised service monitor for the SRT application enables network broadcast engineers to observe where and when live video degrades so they can quickly resolve issues and ensure quality performance. According to recent research, the global video streaming market will grow at a CAGR of 18.7%, reaching $2.66 billion in 2032. SRT is quickly becoming the industry standard for secure, reliable and low-latency video transport.
