NETSCOUT’s industry-leading hybrid IT multi-cloud and container services, consisting of a vSCOUTTM, nGeniusONE® and nGeniusPULSETM proof-of-concept (PoC), met the stringent ONUG Monitoring & Analytics Guidelines set by a working group of enterprise IT leaders, vendors, and cloud/service providers.

“NETSCOUT’s selection as an ONUG Innovation Award winner is a clear validation of our thought leadership and commitment to developing solutions that address the needs of enterprise IT users,” stated Paul Barrett, chief technology officer for Enterprise, NETSCOUT. “Our Cloud Smarter approach allows IT organizations to achieve full visibility into their applications and services, helping them to seamlessly migrate to the cloud.”

NETSCOUT’s winning PoC relies on wire data to monitor applications across all of an enterprise’s technologies. The NETSCOUT solution simplifies the hybrid, multi-cloud monitoring strategy, while at the same time reducing tool sprawl and total-cost-of-ownership.
