Visibility Into Public Cloud and SDN
Besides the traditional network, NetworkBrain supports end-end visibility for many new technologies, such as the public cloud and SDN. NetworkBrain supports AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, ACI, and VMWare NSX.
- Auto Discovery: NetworkBrain can discover public cloud and SDN resources and update the data periodically by leveraging the benchmark function with the auto-discovery function.
- Review network topology, data and config with dynamic mapping: NetworkBrain uses API to access the public cloud environment and SDN controller and provides the data model to build the Map based on the data model. The system can periodically retrieve the data from public cloud providers and update data accordingly.
- Map application dependency across the end-to-end network: with the ability to build the data model for the public cloud, SDN, SD-WAN, and the traditional network, NetworkBrain can provide you with the path analysis function across the entire network. NetworkBrain can check the routing table/security group/network ACL for all the networking objects along the path and display the checking result details.
- SPOG access through cloud-native and 3rd party cloud management tools: NetworkBrain can use Data View Template (DVT) to display the cloud infrastructure data from the native cloud API, display the cloud monitoring data from the native cloud monitoring, and we can integrate with any of your cloud monitoring tools such as Datadog, Splunk, and Dynatrace. The following DVT example shows GCP basic information.
