Navigating blind through your network when moving applications to a public cloud or hybrid environment is a hazardous experience for network engineers. Moving to the cloud reduces costs and increases and convenience but compromises control. How can you retain this control during the treacherous cloud on-boarding maneuver when business Ops must have seamless continuity?

If installing your own servers in a public data center, you have more choices when engineering monitoring capabilities, but you may still be restricted on what packets the data center operator allows port mirrored or SPANned. In a purely virtual public cloud infrastructure, such as AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure, you are even more abstracted from the physical layer making network tapping a challenge. Providing visibility on your applications and their infrastructure is not a priority for these public cloud companies.

Fortunately, Teraquant and Garland Technologies have teamed up to leverage our unmatched experience in network tapping, filtering, and SIP monitoring, troubleshooting, and service assurance.  to provide you with the perfect SIP probe solution. This article outlines how you can achieve vendor-independent, secured monitoring, giving pure visibility between all of your third-party vendor Voice, Video & UC applications. Running in public, hybrid, or private cloud environments, you can now move to the cloud with confidence, restoring control, maintainability, and assure your VoIP services.

As a wise man once said, “there’s always enough time to fix the problems thereafter but never enough time to get it right, first time round”. When you move to the cloud from on-prem, our recommendation is to install your probes and monitoring infrastructure first. It’s quick and easy to do and it will save you 2/3 of the time on the project backend, testing and commissioning your new public cloud-based service.

Moving your voice, video, and UC apps into the cloud put them one more step removed from you and beyond your control. Take back that control and empower your engineering and ops team to be on top of all problem scenarios, performance bottlenecks, and have peace of mind regarding security.
