  1. Managing HetNets: How application awareness drives intelligent mobile data offloading decisions

    Mobile data offloading helps operators optimize network capacity, improve network performance, enhance service quality and provide ubiquitous connectivity. Deep packet inspection is key in enabling intelligent traffic offloading: It offers real-time identification of the underlying traffic — whether it is latency-sensitive, mission-critical or bandwidth-intensive — paving the way for enhanced network performance, and service quality.

  2. DPI for SD-WAN solutions

    SD-WAN products provide the improved capability to manage changing network traffic patterns that result from cloud computing and new application architectures. In order to ensure advanced security, optimize user experience, enable real-time business decisions, improve customer service, and increase business productivity, SD-WANs must now become smarter, or “application-aware”. Application awareness is providing the intelligence that is required to take SD-WANs to the next level.

  3. vCPE and uCPE: How much cloud do we really need?

    CPE virtualization abolishes proprietary hardware, vendor lock-in, congested rack space and expensive on-site maintenance. How has the cloud transformed CPE and what are the CPE deployment models that best fit today’s diverse traffic? This blog post discusses virtualized CPE (vCPE) and universal CPE (uCPE) in the context of how DPI enables the development of network architectures that are aligned to today’s traffic needs. It illustrates in detail how deep intelligence on traffic and applications enables the optimization of CPE architecture covering options that include on-premises, data center and cloud deployments and the assessment of these options in terms of overall cost, network efficiency and application performance.

  4. Cutting up the perfect piece: DPI-enhanced traffic intelligence for 5G network slicing

    Unlike its predecessor networks, 5G involves network slicing which overlays logical networks on a common infrastructure, creating different ‘slices’ that act as separate networks. This article discusses the need for real-time traffic intelligence for 5G network slicing. It explains 5G network slicing, the 5G usage classes and how real-time intelligence provided by DPI enables the creation and implementation of various traffic management policies as well as how it supports network optimization and monetization.

  5. Harnessing intelligence at the core with DPI for vEPC

    The shift from an EPC to a vEPC opens up the possibility for networks to manage capacities as needed while scaling and customizing the network dynamically based on traffic conditions and application requirements. What’s the role of deep packet inspection (DPI) in creating these highly responsive, scalable and agile 4G networks? This article discusses the need for DPI-powered intelligence in the vEPC as DPI provides real-time traffic insights on applications, protocols, traffic attributes, malware and other data required to implement traffic management, security and content management policies, not only across the core but also throughout the network.
