Technological advancements in trendy functions have revolutionized the way businesses operate, fostering unparalleled agility and innovation that continuously push the limits of what’s possible. As functions expand beyond private knowledge facilities and proliferate across multiple cloud service providers and edge units, organisations are struggling with diminished visibility into their increasingly distributed environments. The absence of real-time visibility into these complex ecosystems has rendered it increasingly challenging, if not impossible, for community groups to pinpoint utility availability points across multicloud, hybrid environments. For those familiar with the CCIE, the phrase is often: “Can one seamlessly integrate a packet sniffer into a cloud-based infrastructure?”
At Cisco, we believe that driving innovation can be harmonious with fostering a strong and resilient community, which is why we’re partnering with likeminded experts who share our commitment to this value. We are thrilled to unveil cutting-edge integrations between Cisco and Amazon Web Services (AWS), empowering community groups with unprecedented visibility, allowing for swift and precise troubleshooting of utility availability points across today’s dynamic multicloud networks.
Kernel-level visibility unlocks unparalleled community observability.
Multicloud visibility starts by leveraging in-kernel workload observability to provide unparalleled insight into system activity. Following their acquisition by Cisco, the co-creators of Cilium and Tetragon – pioneering applied sciences that have already established themselves as the de facto standard for cloud-native networking and security. For AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) users leveraging Kubernetes, Cilium’s eBPF-based implementation provides native networking, security, and observability capabilities within these environments. As processes read files, spawn new ones, or establish network connections, eBPF code embedded in Cilium executes at the kernel level, enabling detailed telemetry collection – including TCP and UDP protocol data, packet loss, and latency metrics. The Cilium project is a community-driven effort backed by Cisco. Additionally, this solution is available as a natural progression to unlock enhanced features in networking, observability, and security.
The seamless integration of Isovalent Enterprise with AWS enables the streaming of networking telemetry data into Amazon CloudWatch Community Monitoring, allowing for the correlation of workload insights with specific network performance metrics within AWS environments. These insights can also migrate seamlessly, enabling place community groups to develop unified dashboards that integrate metrics from on-premises networks, cloud networks, and utility efficiency, while safety teams can utilize this knowledge for real-time risk detection and coverage enforcement? By enriching workload visibility with AWS community efficiency and making it accessible to Splunk, organizations gain instant visibility into their entire AWS infrastructure, empowering community groups to achieve unparalleled observability and management capabilities in today’s fast-paced, high-function environments.

The deep integration in observe
What if we explored how the Cisco and AWS integration plays out in real-world scenarios? A leading financial services company recently successfully transitioned a critical trading platform to Amazon Web Services (AWS). The appliance enables workloads to scale efficiently in the cloud while keeping sensitive data on-premises for regulatory compliance purposes. Although their community group possessed refined instruments for monitoring on-premises efficiency, they found significant gaps in their community visibility when site visitors migrated to the cloud. The distinction between utility points and underlying community issues grew increasingly obscure. Customers who voiced concerns over efficiency were left wondering whether the problem lay with their own infrastructure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), or somewhere in between. The introduction of advanced, end-to-end integrations between Cisco and AWS has empowered our customers’ networking teams to gain valuable insights into process-level activity across all workloads. This enables users to monitor community efficiency metrics, visualize the entire utility path, and correlate all data for rapid troubleshooting, offering a multifunctional central administration platform. Today’s collaborative tools enable teams to quickly resolve misunderstandings that once required hours of discussion.

As e-commerce networks expand across Amazon Web Services (AWS) and on-premises environments, fueled by the surge in distributed workloads, customers have expressed growing concerns about implementing comprehensive, end-to-end security measures to mitigate risks. When community faults occur, clients demand prompt and accurate pinpointing of the issue. We’ve collaborated with Cisco to enhance global digital security by integrating Hypershield, Splunk, and Amazon CloudWatch Community Monitoring solutions for seamless management of hybrid workloads, empowering customers to accelerate cloud migrations while ensuring the secure operation of these workloads.
Providing comprehensive assurances and unparalleled safety solutions.
Later this month, our company will debut a cutting-edge multicloud solution designed to streamline cloud infrastructure discovery, simplify configuration modifications, and optimize utility efficiency for seamless cloud management. ThousandEyes’ renowned path visualization technology now expands to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) ecosystem, offering a seamless integration that not only maps network paths but also reveals the correlation between website user behavior and energy consumption patterns. Here is the rewritten text:
ThousandEyes’ existing community and utility synthesizers merged seamlessly with this capability yield genuine end-to-end assurance – from your knowledge hub, through the internet or direct connection, and deeply into the Amazon Web Services infrastructure.
Ultimately, leveraging isovalent expertise, it delivers seamless visibility, ensures robust safety controls, and streamlines workload management across multi-cloud and hybrid environments at scale.
Hypershield leverages advanced telemetry, artificial intelligence-driven evaluations, and expertly curated recommendations to revolutionize safety through its pioneering features: autonomous segmentation and distributed exploit mitigation.
