Applications with the power to see all
OSm gives Endace Probes the ability to run multiple applications simultaneously. Each application runs in its own virtual container, and has access to the Probe's single, 100% accurate source of captured network traffic. So whether you are looking to run your own applications, open-source applications, or 3rd-party commercial applications or a mix of all three, you can now consolidate all of them onto a single platform - saving valuable resources in your data-centres.
Applications compatible with OSm
Applications ideally suited to take advantage of the unique aspects of the Endace OSm environment typically:
- Require the libpcap library, although Endace recommends using the Endace DAG API rather than libpcap due to the higher features and performance of the Endace optimised library.
- Require continuous high speed capture to disk at a guaranteed performance level.
- Want to interact with other applications running on Endace Probes and take advantage of the Probe’s event generation, routing, and processing capabilities.
- Want to use direct DAG port to DAG port connections to copy or forward large amounts of captured traffic among applications running on several Endace Probes and/or Endace ODE platforms.
power to see all
Endace is working with a broad range of ISV's, application partners and open-source communities to develop a comprehensive range of applications that are all certified to run on OSm. Ultimately our intention is to build a marketplace where you can choose from a wide range of OSm-certified applications across a broad range of categories. In addition to helping customers port their own applications to OSm's VM environment, we are also working with a range of vendors who provide applications in the following areas:
- Network monitoring
- Application and performance monitoring
- Feed and trade latency monitoring
- VoIP and video Quality of Service (QoS) monitoring
- Deep Packet Inspection
- Data Leakage Protection
- Mobile network monitoring
