IOTA 100 CORE
Traffic capture and analysis for core networks
IOTA 100 CORE is a high-speed packet capture and analysis solution for core networks, large branches, and data centers. It empowers network engineers to rapidly identify, analyze, and resolve performance issues, application bottlenecks, and security risks.
With IOTA 100 CORE, you can continuously capture network traffic and extract detailed real-time and historical insights into critical applications and data flows.
By combining full packet capture with advanced metadata extraction, IOTA helps you:
-
- Baseline network behavior
- Spot anomalies faster by measuring standard performance metrics during typical operation conditions to establish a reference point.
-
- Spot performance issues
- Diagnose latency, throughput, packet loss, and retransmissions at a glance.
-
- Analyze application behavior
- Track over 3,000 applications and protocols.
-
- Maintain network integrity
- Quickly pinpoint security flaws and irregular protocol usage.
Complete network observability at 100Gbps
- Instantly access networking KPIs to understand performance across your entire infrastructure.
- Sustained traffic capture and analysis up to 100Gbps without packet loss, ensuring integrity and actionable insights.
- Understand protocol behavior, application flows, and network usage to support IT and security management.
Accelerate issue resolution & reduce operational risk
- Establish a proactive network baseline to detect anomalies early and reduce business disruptions.
- Rapid root cause identification empowers teams to respond faster, protecting productivity and customer experience.
- Enable your team to act quickly with accurate, filtered data. No more guesswork or blind spots.
Actionable traffic intelligence
- Leverage detailed flow views and custom queries to monitor your critical assets and services.
- Export high-fidelity, pre-filtered PCAPs to support audits, forensics, and regulatory needs.
High-speed capture and efficient storage
IOTA 100 CORE supports two 40/100G capture ports and can be deployed alone or with TAPs and Network Packet Brokers for maximum flexibility. Internally, a robust RAID 5 storage architecture, including high durability options, ensures seamless packet capture and network activity storage, enabling real-time and long-term forensic analysis on high-speed networks.
-
- Ring buffer
- Avoid data loss by continuously recording traffic in a loop.
-
- Scalable storage
- Choose the SSD capacity that matches your retention and analysis needs.
-
- Capture efficiency
- Apply filters to reduce the amount of data captured and choose to capture metadata only. This can reduce data volume by up to 90% compared to raw PCAP files while retaining critical packet-level details.
-
- RAID 5
- All storage options are configured in RAID 5, which provides a strong balance of redundancy, capacity efficiency, and read/write performance. Single-parity protection safeguards captured data from a single disk failure while maximizing usable storage space.
