ExtraHop announced the release of the EH9100, an appliance that delivers real-time wire data analysis at a sustained 40 Gbps.
“Forty gigabit Ethernet continues to gain traction as enterprises scale up datacenters to support organizational growth, an increasing number of applications, and escalating data. Unfortunately, many packet capture-based monitoring technologies are far behind this curve, ” said Shamus McGillicuddy, Senior Analyst, Enterprise Management Associates. “With the EH9100, ExtraHop has positioned itself as a leader in monitoring for hyper-scale, giving operations teams the real-time analytics capacity they need to manage explosive datacenter traffic growth and workload density, while extracting maximum value from that data.”
With the EH9100 appliance, enterprises have the speed and capacity they need to derive IT and business insights from data at scale.
Key capabilities of the EH9100 include the following:
- Instantaneous insight delivered by real-time wire data analysis at a sustained 40 Gbps – the equivalent of approximately 422 terabytes of data per day.
- The ability to transform up to four million packets per second into structured wire data and then analyze and visualize all transactions using the ExtraHop real-time stream processor.
- SSL traffic analysis at a sustained bulk decryption rate of 40 Gbps with the capability to process 64,000 handshakes per second with 2048-bit RSA keys.
- Analysis of up to 1.3 million HTTP transactions per second.
“At F5, my co-founder, Raja Mukerji, and I witnessed the transition from 100Mbps ‘fast Ethernet’ to gigabit. When we started ExtraHop in 2007, we did so recognizing the incredible challenges that would come as datacenter networks scaled beyond these speeds. We knew that legacy management tools were inappropriate for comprehensive real-time analysis and ill-equipped to help IT manage complex environments. Next-generation monitoring and analytic platforms would need to continuously push the envelope for scalability,” said Jesse Rothstein, CEO, ExtraHop. “ExtraHop led the industry with a 10 Gbps appliance in 2010. We doubled performance in 2013 with the release of our 20 Gbps appliance. Now, we’ve doubled performance again with the EH9100, delivering visibility and insight at 40 Gbps scale.”
