Deep Application Visibility for Smarter Tools
Analytics tools are only as smart as the data they receive. Gigamon Application Metadata empowers your security information and event management (SIEM) and network performance analytics tools with critical metadata attributes across thousands of individual applications. It provides the deep level of application visibility needed to rapidly pinpoint performance bottlenecks and potential network security risks.
A core component of Gigamon Application Intelligence, Application Metadata helps you manage the complex digital applications at the heart of your digital transformation initiatives.
- Generates more than 5,000 application-related metadata attributes powered by deep packet inspection
- Provides metadata depth for monitoring components within multi-tiered digital applications
- Easily exports to a growing tools ecosystem, including SIEM, performance and security analytics tools
Get detailed metadata attributes related to usage, application performance, user experience and more.
Improve Application Performance and Network Security
Application Metadata provides deep visibility and context into applications, including usage, content and behavior — so you can get ahead of emerging customer experience or security issues.
- Monitoring user experience: How did the application perform for the user? Was the video HD or was it low-resolution? Did the video freeze?
- Troubleshooting a problematic app: How much data was retrieved from this MongoDB tier? How long did the response take?
- Improving security posture: Did the user download an executable over Facebook Messenger? What was the file?
- Violating your “Shadow IT” policies: What files are being sent over YouSendIt or the Ares peer-to-peer sharing site?
Application Metadata can be easily shared with SIEM tools, internal IT systems and other analytics tools. We arm these tools with hard-to-find, specific application information to do their jobs far more effectively.
