Riverbed

For two decades, Riverbed has been a leader in IT environment monitoring and optimization, constantly grappling with the major changes in this era of digital transformation: in the modern business environment, corporate applications are spread across multiple sites around the world, in different places, in data centers and in various public clouds. In addition, many workers now work from home, and the resulting decentralized IT environment makes managing an organization’s network a complex task.

Observability Solutions Division

Riverbed’s monitoring solutions (concentrated under the Alluvio division), allow uniform presentation of all information gathered from the environment as a whole (including hybrid environments and public clouds) and not on a sample basis. They provide alerts from all environments using tools like filters, prioritization, configuration of an order of operations to repair malfunctions, and an automation system that recommends a course of action for each scenario, as defined by the IT managers.

The division’s leading solutions include: network performance monitoring (NPM) via a uniform management console, application performance monitoring (APN) including for SaaS applications, and IT infrastructure monitoring, including mapping physical infrastructure used by the applications, finding flaws and helping locate malfunctions.
