Are you able to handle the rapid growth of your network due to IoT? Is your network management platform ready for it?
Networks have evolved dramatically over just the last 5 years to expand far beyond the traditional endpoints and now must embrace SDN/NFV, Iot, and a host of other devices.
Explosive growth in the inclusion of IoT devices within the network now presents today’s network managers with yet another the challenge in planning for network design and management.
Analysts estimate that there are more than 8.4 billion connected “things” on the Internet in 2017, which will grow to 20 billion by the year 2020. This figure dwarfs the number of mobile devices currently on the network, yet Service Providers still need to provide consistent monitoring and service-quality management for connectivity, availability, and network and systems performance.
Infosim StableNet? is a single-pane network management platform for: Fault Management, Performance Management, Configuration Management, and Inventory Management. StableNet? can encompass and manage large multi-vendor environments including those experiencing rapid growth from the addition of IoT devices (including meters, valves, switch sensors, phones, alarms, etc.), and is deployed by large enterprises, governments, and educational institutions worldwide that recognize the importance of their network and are sensitive to the issues of unplanned downtime, and protracted time-to-resolution.
Our most recent development work produced many monitoring and reporting tools to fully bring IoT systems into the enterprise network. In fact, our collaboration on planning for large scale IoT deployment was documented by Intel in this video
, as well as a white paper available from our website.
Designing a broad network infrastructure that can embrace all these design considerations and devices takes a strong, expandable network management platform.
Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) recently awarded Infosim? StableNet? with one of the highest ratings among 13 industry leaders’ competing products. Their study on Enterprise Hybrid Infrastructure Management Systems (EHIM), rated StableNet? a Value Leader, and called out the platform for strength in expansion to serve IoT network designs.
StableNet? was awarded strong scores in architecture, discovery, scalability, and complex event correlation. EMA noted also that StableNet? offers solid integration with other third-party IT management systems because of its strong customization capability.
“EMA has spoken to multiple customers who were able to monitor the availability and performance of nonstandard Internet of Things (IoT) devices after Infosim? applied custom scripts to its external monitoring probes”.
