Enterprises and mobile operators use Ixia's visibility solutions to improve quality of experience (QOE), enhance network performance, detect network anomalies, and improve business intelligence. Ixia's solutions provide the real-time, end-to-end visibility that organizations need to protect and improve the performance of their enterprise assets across the cloud, data center, and critical networks.
“With the increasing monitoring requirements due to 5G and VoLTE technologies, we need a scalable and cost-effective monitoring solution for our networks, both physical and virtual,” said Javier Gavilan, Director of Transport, Platforms and Core Networks at Telefónica Global CTIO. “Ixia helps us provide immediate visibility into our network traffic, enabling us to improve network operations, facilitate the resolution of use cases for service operations centers, and reduce total costs.”
The visibility solutions from Ixia implemented at Telefónica include:
• Ixia Network Packet Brokers (NPBs) , which offer intelligent, sophisticated, programmable network flow optimization. They provide visibility and security to enterprise assets, enabling monitoring to quickly resolve application performance bottlenecks and troubleshoot issues, as well as enhance network monitoring and security tools.
• Ixia Network Tap products , including fiber optic taps, copper taps, and tap aggregators, which provide visibility into network traffic and maintain optimal security and performance.
• The Ixia Fabric Controller (IFC), which facilitates centralized management of NPBs to create a cohesive monitoring and security fabric that operates as a single layer.
“As data continues to grow and service providers begin implementing virtualization, 5G technology, and other upgrades, the need to ensure network performance, security, and quality of experience is greater than ever,” said Mark Pierpoint, president of the Ixia Solutions Group at Keysight Technologies. “Collaborating with one of the world’s leading service providers, along with our national partners, has enabled Ixia to deliver a global visibility architecture that addresses Telefónica’s need for a cost-effective visibility solution that will provide unprecedented business progress.”
The implementation of Ixia's visibility solution at Telefónica has been completed in Spain, Germany, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Central America (Guatemala, Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Panama), while the project is still underway in other countries.
