Benefits
• 
Extensible platform that offers behavior 
based application insight to support critical 
datacenter operational use cases 
• 
Provides pervasive visibility using 
rich telemetry collected across 
physical and virtual infrastructure
• 
Enables migration to a secure 
zero-trust model using whitelist policy
• 
Capability to process millions 
of flows per second to provide 
actionable insights in minutes
• 
Search tens of billions of flow 
records in less than a second for 
real-time forensics and analysis 
Datacenters today are increasingly 
becoming more complex. With 
datacenter traffic predominantly being 
east-west and combined with rapid 
application deployment and application 
mobility has exacerbated the challenges 
for datacenter operations. Network 
operations don’t have full visibility into 
the traffic, IT operations don’t know 
the exact application communication 
pattern or the policies to be implemented 
between different application tiers. These 
operations teams need this information 
for number of following reasons:
• 
To migrate applications from 
existing traditional infrastructure to 
programmable infrastructure
• 
To maintain up-to-date infrastructure 
for disaster recovery
• 
To build and deploy a consistent, 
accurate, and secure whitelist  
policy model
• 
To monitor applications for network 
policy compliance and identify  
any deviations
• 
And more..
The new Cisco Tetration Analytics™ 
platform (Figure 1) addresses these 
requirements using unsupervised 
machine learning, behavior-analysis 
and algorithmic approaches to provide 
pervasive visibility, accurately identify 
applications running in the data center 
and their dependencies and the 
underlying policies between different 
application tiers. Cisco Tetration Analytics 
platform is designed to extensibility and 
support additional datacenter operational 
use cases as this platform evolves.
