Cisco has announced a series of new solutions on the Cisco Observability Platform. With applications acting as the gateway for nearly every business, ensuring a seamless application experience becomes a top priority for IT teams. These enhancements will help customers deliver a secure and competent user and application experience.
To cater to the soaring expectations for application experience, technologists can leverage new digital experience monitoring (DEM) capabilities for both hybrid and cloud environments. The new DEM applications include real user monitoring and session replay modules that provide deep insights into the performance of browser and mobile applications, and facilitate efficient resolution of session-level issues. In addition, integration with Cisco ThousandEyes and Cisco Accedian will empower applications and network teams with insights into service delivery, enabling them to identify whether the root cause of a compromised digital experience lies within the application, network, or cloud infrastructure.
In addition, Cisco has announced Cisco AIOps for Cisco Full-Stack Observability, offering actionable insights to improve IT operations. The new Cisco AIOps application simplifies real-time business health monitoring and significantly reduces noise from events and alerts to automate IT processes and keep operations teams productive and responsive. The application unifies data from Cisco AppDynamics, Cisco ThousandEyes, Cisco DNA Center, VMWare, Zabbix and ServiceNow. It is uniquely positioned on the Cisco Observability Platform, which supports logs in addition to alerts, events and metrics. It also provides dynamic threshold-based alerts on metrics and events, as well as multiple anomaly-detection approaches.
Cisco has introduced a series of new partner modules on the Cisco Observability Platform:
- Aporia – machine learning (ML) monitoring
- CloudFabrix – asset intelligence, operational intelligence and infrastructure observability
- Komodor – Kubernetes change management
- Perform IT – AS400 monitoring and I4Cube business
performance - SoftServe – operational intelligence for oilfields
The Cisco Observability Platform aggregates data from various domains, including networking, security, applications, end-user services, cloud services, and multi cloud infrastructure and businesses. By leveraging ML and artificial intelligence capabilities, it aims toto break down silos, and contextualise and correlate real-time telemetry across these domains. This can help organisations enhance visibility, gain insights and take actions to improve digital experiences for both customers and end-users.
