Abstract: An example method includes detecting, using sensors, packets throughout a datacenter. The sensors can then send packet logs to various collectors which can then identify and summarize data flows in the datacenter. The collectors can then send flow logs to an analytics module which can identify the status of the datacenter and detect an attack.

Abstract: A method provides for receiving network traffic from a host having a host IP address and operating in a data center, and analyzing a malware tracker for IP addresses of hosts having been infected by a malware to yield an analysis. When the analysis indicates that the host IP address has been used to communicate with an external host infected by the malware to yield an indication, the method includes assigning a reputation score, based on the indication, to the host. The method can further include applying a conditional policy associated with using the host based on the reputation score. The reputation score can include a reduced reputation score from a previous reputation score for the host.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to intent driven network management. A system is configured to maintain an inventory store comprising records for a set of network entities in a network, wherein each network entity in the set of network entities is associated with a record in the inventory store. The system receives a user intent statement comprising an action and a flow filter representing network data flows on which the action is to be applied and queries, based on the flow filter, the inventory store to identify a plurality of network entities in the set of network entities to which the user intent statement applies. The system generates a plurality of network policies that implement the user intent statement based on the plurality of network entities and the action and enforces the plurality network policies.

Abstract: An application and network analytics platform can capture telemetry from servers and network devices operating within a network. The application and network analytics platform can determine an application dependency map (ADM) for an application executing in the network. Using the ADM, the application and network analytics platform can resolve flows into flowlets of various granularities, and determine baseline metrics for the flowlets. The baseline metrics can include transmission times, processing times, and/or data sizes for the flowlets. The application and network analytics platform can compare new flowlets against the baselines to assess availability, load, latency, and other performance metrics for the application. In some implementations, the application and network analytics platform can automate remediation of unavailability, load, latency, and other application performance issues.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for determining whether a node in a network is a server or a client. In some examples, a system can collect, from one or more sensors that monitor at least part of data traffic being transmitted via a pair of nodes in a network, information of the data traffic. The system can analyze attributes of the data traffic such as timing, port magnitude, degree of communication, historical data, etc. Based on analysis results and a predetermined rule associated with the attributes, the system can determine which node of the pair of nodes is a client and which node is a server.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a multi-level analysis for determining a root cause of a network problem by performing a first level of the multi-level process that includes collecting data from one or more network components, generating a set of system metrics where each system metric of the set representing a portion of the data, ranking the set of system metrics based on a level of correlation of each system metric to the network problem to yield a ranked set of system metrics, and providing a visual representation of the first level of the multi-level process. A second level of the multi-level process includes receiving an input identifying one or more of the ranked set of system metrics to be excluded from analysis and performing a conditional analysis using only ones of the set of system metrics that are not identified for exclusion.
