Gigamon announced the general availability and certification of the GigaVUE-VM integration with VMware NSX, a solution that automates traffic visibility for the software-defined data center (SDDC).
While utilizing the compelling benefits of a software-defined data center architecture based upon the VMware NSX platform, customers can now leverage the GigaVUE-VM solution to enable enhanced and configurable visibility into their workload traffic patterns.
GigaVUE-VM, the virtual visibility component of Gigamon’s GigaSECURE Security Delivery Platform, uses VMware NSX Dynamic Service Insertion and NetX API integration to deliver pervasive and automated reach to virtual traffic in the SDDC.
The GigaSECURE platform with VMware NSX enables organizations to configure and automate the capture of virtual network traffic and delivery to their network and security tools. Specific NSX traffic policies can be configured and associated with the security groups in the micro-segmented deployment. As security groups expand in scale, NSX automatically copies the virtual traffic to Gigamon’s GigaSECURE Security Delivery Platform for replication and optimization before delivery to security tools.
“VMware is pleased to enable Gigamon as part of a strong NSX Ecosystem of partners helping customers realize the tremendous benefits of SDDC and Network virtualization” said Geoff Huang, Senior Director of Product Marketing, Networking and Security Business Unit at VMware. “The GigaSECURE Security Delivery Platform provides additional capabilities for traffic capture and interface to other tools directly benefiting the operational metrics of a software-defined data center.”
Gigamon also announced today that Gigamon GigaVUE-VM has achieved VMware Ready status for VMware NSX-enabled networking and security solutions. The designation indicates that the solution has been interoperability tested with VMware NSX and utilizes the APIs and interface methods enabled by the NSX platform per VMware technical guidance.
“Automated visibility is critical to securing and monitoring dynamically scalable application workloads in private clouds and data centers where agility and automation are a must,” said Ananda Rajagopal, VP Products, Gigamon. “Security administrators can now use the GigaSECURE Security Delivery Platform and VMware NSX to provide dynamic traffic visibility in the micro-segmented data center.”
