The ExtraHop Application Delivery Assurance system is engineered from the ground up to provide powerful application performance management (APM) capabilities without the complexity and cost of traditional APM offerings. Rather than using legacy technologies, such as NetFlow collection, SNMP polling, custom performance agents, or active service checks, the ExtraHop system takes a unique network-based approach to APM, performing full-stream reassembly and full content analysis of network traffic to extract performance and health metrics. Unlike other products, the ExtraHop system analyzes application transactions continuously and in real time, at speeds up to a sustained 10Gbps.
