Most commonly used Observer Platform products
Below is an overview of the most popular products offered by the Observer Platform.
Observer Analyzer
Observer Analyzer is a complete tool for monitoring and diagnosing network performance. This powerful tool monitors UC deployments, network security performance and applications. In addition, it solves complex network problems, including those in VM environments.
With Observer Analyzer, you can optimize the operation of your network and troubleshoot problems. This tool picks up where Wireshark leaves off, offering you extensive capabilities, such as:
- Monitoring complex operations.
- Tracing details and facts.
- Gaining insight into bottlenecks at the source level.
- A Next Generation Protocol Analyzer.
- Alerts and overviews such as delay and settlement in time.
Observer Analyzer is a comprehensive expert system with drilldown feature to accurately pinpoint specific points of interest. Thus, you can use this tool for both the network layer, server-client response, and application layers. Furthermore, Observer Analyzer is also particularly suitable for processing measurement data coming from Wireshark.
Observer GigaStor
Observer GigaStor is a Retrospective Network Analyzer and available as a hardware device and as a virtualization application. The tool allows you to look back, analyze, and view more than one
store petabytes of data. Thanks to Observer GigaStor’s ability to collect massive amounts of data and its unique “back in time” analyses, there is no need to reproduce problems. You simply go back to when the problem occurred and investigate what happened.
GigaStor is not only an indispensable tool for your firewall and security software layers, but also for countering cybercrime. The analyzer is a crucial link in your defense against cyber attacks, ensuring an even more secure IT environment.
Observer Apex
With Observer Apex, you get a complete 360-degree view of your network, enabling accurate problem diagnosis. This is done through multiple data sources, such as:
- Packets
- Metadata
- Enriched flow
- Active monitoring
With Observer Apex, you manage your IT assets from start to finish. Partly through detailed, enterprise-wide reports that provide insight into the performance of the network and all software layers.
Observer Apex also provides analysis capabilities with real-time and historical insights into trends. This allows you to act proactively, getting ahead of potential problems and optimizing the performance of your network.
Observer nTAPs
Use Observer nTAPs to allow your monitoring devices to access full duplex network traffic. Here, it does not matter how much traffic is involved. This transparency is essential when monitoring critical links because nTAPs provide a continuous flow of network data, even during power outages.
Granting access is possible thanks to a patented concept from Observer, which ensures that no data streams are lost. Moreover, the nTAPs can be flexibly deployed on all existing Ethernet standards, up to and including speeds of 40 Gb. They are therefore particularly effective and reliable in their task.
