Video streaming: networks and the game of bandwidth
It is evident that video streaming is on a fast track to becoming the new definition of the ‘Internet’, easily outdoing other bandwidth-intensive applications such as cloud gaming, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). The demand for video content seems to move in tandem with network speeds, given that better speeds translate into faster streaming and improved quality of experience (QoE). One of the immediate effects of a rapid increase in video traffic is the strain it puts on network resources, resulting in network congestion and poor network performance. While this impairs almost all applications to some degree, video takes the biggest hit given its dependency on real-time availability of bandwidth and speeds. What operators need now are the right tools that deliver the required intelligence, timely and accurately, to maintain the required QoE and to successfully deploy their video streaming strategies.

QUIC: How DPI with encrypted traffic intelligence supports the web’s latest protocol
QUIC is a network layer protocol that uses the UDP protocol and TLS-based encryption to deliver web traffic between devices. This article discusses the visibility challenges introduced by QUIC and the impact of this on traffic management and security. It also assesses how deep packet inspection (DPI) with encrypted traffic intelligence (ETI) addresses these challenges and powers networking and cybersecurity tools against the rapid growth of QUIC traffic.
