Hi Ted, My apologizes for the delay to reply, as I was brushing up my networking skills before I can discuss. Few of those topics which I want to start with will be,
1) Deep packet inspection - Can be useful for Intrusion detection (NIDS) by doing the port mirroring and analyzing the data packets 2) Identifying trends in high network usage - this will help network administrators to avoid down time, Network Congestion 3) Flow of Traffic - To visualize what is happening with in the data center network 4) Identifying Network Hot-Spot Links I will be having access to Syslog, SNMP data and Data packets at this point in time. There is scope for running predictive analytics over network usage. I will share more information as I progress. Your suggestions are most welcome. Thanks, Mahesh Balija, CalsoftLabs.
