When Data center/IT managers want to manage application delivery over a private WAN or the Internet, they first need to gain full visibility into the types of different traffic traversing the corporate network. Only then can they gain a full understanding of how existing bandwidth is being utilized. Next, they need to assess, with input from the business units they serve, which types of traffic are most critical to serving customers well.
Subsequently, with this information, data center/IT managers can apply specific performance control, bandwidth management or even optimization (if required) over the identified business applications. Lastly, data center/IT managers need to monitor the overall performance provided to the end-users, and share this information with the business units.
