In order to meet these business challenges, many companies have adopted new IT technologies without
considering the implications on network-wide visibility, security and performance.
Consider these facts:
More than 70% of server work loads are virtualized1
Over three quarters of datacenter traffic is between these servers, making datacenter traffic harder to see
and manage2
Growing use of SSL to encrypt traffic for privacy actually obscures traffic for security and performance
monitoring
The gap in overall IT visibility into infrastructure challenges is most profoundly reflected in the finding that
75% of issues are identified first by end users, not by IT3
The impact of all of these technologies has added more layers of complexity, inhibiting visibility for
administrators and reducing the visibility of the IT organization.
Active Visibility enables IT to evaluate new tools without impacting production networks, thereby
shortening technology evaluation cycles and the time to deployment. With Active Visibility, networks gain
flexibility to grow and adopt new technologies.
Gigamons unified Visibility Fabric and Active Visibility enable companies to confidently adopt
new IT technologies without sacrificing network-wide visibility, intellegence, security and agility.
