Network & Application Visibility  

If you only have a vague idea of the applications running over your network…

You need Ipanema!

Your organization is fairly decentralized with many independent business units. Your company might have even grown through several acquisitions.

As a result, your company network is a patchwork of several networks glued together and your business units are still fairly independently minded.

However, everybody agrees that the WAN should be managed centrally on a common critical infrastructure. The problem is that despite these agreed-upon objectives business units have kept the bad habit of rolling-out new applications without informing you. You only have an approximate idea of applications running over your WAN or are sometimes informed after they have rolled-out, which causes  serious incidents of application performance deterioration.

If only you could know in advance and control the applications running over your WAN…

The Ipanema Solution allows you to do just that. By using its layer 7 application discovery feature, you can discover applications in real-time.

Not only you will know if a new application has been rolled-out without your knowledge, but you also have the guarantee that it will not affect the critical application performance through optimization.

Indeed, the new application would have been automatically assigned a configurable priority (typically low or very low) and would not affect the data flows of high-priority critical applications. By using the application discovery function, you can keep tight control over your network whatever the circumstances.

Thanks to the Ipanema Solution, unauthorized applications will no longer degrade the WAN performance!
