NETSCOUT SYSTEMS, INC. announced a new initiative designed to deliver the valuable data needed to drive better outcomes from artificial intelligence (AI) and AIOps solutions. As enterprises increase AIOps observability, they need high-fidelity, enriched and curated data tailored to their unique needs. NETSCOUT is working with its growing ecosystem of partners, including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, ServiceNow, Splunk and others, to
integrate its high-quality, AI-ready data and deliver the insights needed to drive better business outcomes and increase user efficiency.
NETSCOUT generates granular telemetry data at scale and organizes it into targeted streams, producing an insight-rich dataset designed to address critical use cases. NETSCOUT data can be easily ingested into data lakes and other AIOps platforms, where it can be enriched and combined with other datasets for analysis and visualization, enabling better behavioral classifications, predictions, and automation.
“As enterprises automate their IT environments to scale their operations, they need enterprise-grade insights to improve decision making and optimize user experiences,” said Stephen Elliot, group vice president, I&O, Cloud Operations and DevOps, IDC. “Technology leaders must consider the value of service reliability and resiliency they can gain by filtering the appropriate metadata, session data, and IP information needed for critical AIOps and security use cases.”
Delivering data insights at AI scale
To provide high-quality, AI-ready data that mitigates the risks IT teams face due to an overload of unusable or ineffective data, NETSCOUT launched Omnis™ AI Insights. It provides accurate, actionable network telemetry data that fuels customers’ AI initiatives to enable critical outcomes without requiring data transformations and adaptations, including:
● identify and correlate observability trends
● streamline and automate data analysis
● discover historical operational models
● detect unforeseen issues and security risks that could lead to future service interruptions and data breaches
“NETSCOUT is built around deep packet inspection, so we understand the value of transforming raw packet data into actionable intelligence at scale,” said Bruce Kelley, CTO at NETSCOUT. “As customers accelerate their IT operations with AI, our expansive end-to-end visibility and open data model are critical to ensuring better business outcomes and increasing user efficiency.”
Data intelligence, produced and curated at the source for AI platforms, is imperative for AI use cases across many industries, including healthcare, communications service providers, financial services, insurance, manufacturing, energy, and utilities. NETSCOUT’s high-quality, AI-ready data enables models to converge and generalize without having to process extraneous data that confuses or distorts results.
