The Problem
You are using the wrong tool
Nowadays network performance monitoring is based on traffic analysis and complex event correlation. !
The amount of data is continuously increasing and old technologies cannot cope the ever-growing amount of data. !
TimePack is a new technology to provide network visibility and universal latency monitoring. It enables the whole infrastructure to become intelligent and latency aware.
Why TimePack?
Time and location are carried on the same data packet !The IP packet travels from source to destination carrying the entire history of its journey !Cloud services don’t offer any visibility of the underlying infrastructure, every application flow can be efficiently monitored.

TRACKING
TimePack, a new monitoring approach
Technology Portfolio
Network Probe
TimePack for Linux
TimePack inline
Link latency, application specific
TIMEPACK TCP/IP real time latency monitor
Packet latency
Can simulate any IP traffic to test any application performance in any network !The entire solution is managed via a web interface using drag-and-drop !Real time network monitoring dashboard with standard integration interface !Very small extra management traffic generated !Minimal space, power, cabling, security change required
Probe deployment - Link latency
No command line configuration, no training required !The entire solution is managed via a web interface completelydrag-and-drop !The remote probes are connected to the network and totally managed from the master
Probe Monitoring Interface
TimePack for Linux
Every Linux machine can apply TimePack on specific traffic and the receiving service can be aware of the latency between source and consumer, without any knowledge of the underlying infrastructure. This represent the best solution for cloud monitoring.
TCP/IP latency monitor for the whole datacenter
Two servers Timepack aware can calculate the latency for a specific TCP/IP connection.
This metric will be exported via SNMP, making possible to poll all servers and obtain a TCP/IP live latency monitor
PureIP for TimePack
Streaming and financial market data use UDP multicast, we can swap the UDP with IP+timepack and we achieve network visibility without overhead and the same performance of UDP
Silicon code ready to be installed on network devices (switch, routers) !Any enabled device can add its own information providing greater visibility, no more a simple end-to-end measurement !Can be used in every network (MPLS,VPN, 4G, Satellite) and for a specific traffic (i.e. FIX) !Very low infrastructure impact, transparent for the whole network
Inline deployment - Packet latency
TimePack analyser
In 2015 we will develop a dedicated network appliance to analyze live traffic, extract all TimePack information and use for monitoring . The hardware will be highly customized and based on 10G capture card and GPU for packet processing.
One view for the entire network latency
Combining all our technologies we will be able to provide a dashboard where you can see the link latency (estimated with the probes), you can drill down to TCP/IP latency (with TimePack for Linux) and finally check the single packet latency (thanks to the analyzer). This is our understanding of network visibility.
SDN integration
This is the end goal of Zerolatency, make a network intelligent and capable of self optimize its performance. For example if a traffic is slowing down, the SDN controller can be instructed to change queue priority for this flow or calculate the optimal route based on desired latency
