The role of advanced analytics in networking

The networking space has evolved dramatically over the last two years as organizations realize the increasing value of AIOps, the benefits of full network visibility, and the role secure access plays with remote workforces. Network analytics and monitoring procedures that once were considered standard have quickly becoming inadequate in today's rapidly changing IT network landscape. But fortunately, advanced networking analytics leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are helping to overcome new challenges when it comes to maintaining network performance and future-proofing NetOps teams. As a quick refresher, network analytics applies data analytic techniques to network data to monitor complete network behavior. With the addition of AI/ML technologies (and the rise of AIOps), deeper insights into application and network performance can be drawn on network data.
