Ipanema Technologies released v7.1 of its Autonomic Networking System (ANS).

This new release includes enhancements that improve application visibility, control, and performance, giving large enterprises, particularly those in the cloud, the ability to manage increased data volumes.

With ANS v7.1 using a new software architecture and faster Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), Ipanema triples its high-end device performance (ip|e1800ax) reaching up to 20,000 new connections per second. This results in a throughput of 2Gbps alongside a classification system recognizing over 300 applications out of the box. Intelligent device clustering guarantees business application performance up to 10GBPS. As a result, companies are better placed to cope with the significant year-on-year traffic growth they are now experiencing.

Other additional ANS v7.1 enhancements include:

- Cloud application performance report. The new Cloud Application Monitoring (CAM) report allows enterprises to understand and control the cloud applications usage and performance from the user perspective in the branch offices.

- Virtual appliances (virtual|engine) that can be deployed as an alternative to hardware appliances in virtualized data centers and branch offices. ANS v7.1 enables hybrid deployments of physical and virtual devices that work together to measure control and optimize all application traffic across the enterprise.

Béatrice Piquer-Durand, Vice President Marketing, Ipanema Technologies commented: “Enterprises will continue to move to the cloud, increasingly virtualizing their infrastructure, using more hosted computing capacity and making SaaS applications mainstream. They need tools to control and guarantee business application performance in this fast-moving and complex environment. ANS v7.1 demonstrates our commitment and ability to enable our customers to succeed in this time of change.”

François Lecerf, CTO, Ipanema Technologies added: “I am very pleased with the performance of ANS v7.1. Following our recent launch of the nano|engine (a tool designed for small branch offices), we now have one of the industry’s most capable solutions for large data centers. Our autonomic control system and broad range of products allow enterprises to control and optimize their WAN application traffic - no matter how large or complex their infrastructure is.”
