But in the current world where an overwhelming amount of data is generated, one would need to be informed when trying to make the right decisions to improve business prospects. This is where Network Analytics plays an important role. Network Analytics, the name is in a way self-explanatory as it means analysis of network data providing insight into the data collected leading to identify trends, patterns, help in troubleshooting resulting in right business decisions being made. Aruba’s Network Analytics products have been the go-to products in the market, especially with the increasing demand in the Telecom sector and Data Centers.

Organizations need Network Analytics as it is particularly useful in preventing, detecting and responding to security threats, which have since 2020 only increased multifold in terms of number and impact. Telecom and Datacenter network administrators are leveraging network analytics to optimize their infrastructure. Using it, administrators are more equipped with deep understandings and meaningful insights to plan capacity and dimension their complex networks. Network Analytics reveals crucial information about hidden bottlenecks and other network design issues that can choke traffic and impede productivity. Network analytics from the cloud can help organizations track performance and make more accurate capacity planning decisions for commissioning and decommissioning of cloud resources based on dynamic usage requirements. With the emergence of IoT and similar technologies, there is an urgent need to include network analytics for organizations to stay ahead of their competition.
