Ensuring End-user Satisfaction
in a Network-centric World
In order to ensure end-user satisfaction in a network-centric world, network
providers and managers must ensure applications run properly over their
private networks. Today’s end-users are quite savvy. They realize
that application performance is not just a function of the available bandwidth.
Other metrics can impact application performance.
Examples of these metrics are:
Delay
Jitter
Packet Loss
Packet Sequencing
Bit Errors
The challenge most network managers and providers have is characterizing
and validating that applications run properly over their network. Initially,
spools of fiber were used to characterize the delay associated with long-haul
networks; however, there was no way to vary delay or emulate other QoS
metrics with a spool of fiber. With the advent of Network Emulators, all
combinations and variations of delays and impairments could be tested
in order to validate application performance.
Anue Network Emulators allow you to precisely control the amount of errors,
delays and other impairments that you add to network traffic. By running
your critical networked applications in this type of “emulated”
environment, you can establish, maintain and optimize performance and
availability.
Applications where performance is sensitive to network conditions and
therefore should be properly tested under various network conditions include:
Mission critical enterprise applications
Transaction-oriented applications
VoIP
IPTV
Streaming media
Gaming
VPNs.
Understanding application performance is also important for conducting
Capacity Planning. Capacity planning can optimize network infrastructure,
reduce costs, accommodate future growth and provide insight into how resources
are used. Effective capacity planning requires analyzing end-to-end performance
in order to understand which applications and hosts use which resources
and how the applications perform for end users.
