COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Dec. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- According to Verizon Enterprise Tech Trends for 2015, harnessing big data for unprecedented insights into how products and services are being used will be a key priority for the C-suite in 2015. In conjunction with this trend, real-time big data analytics (RTBDA) has emerged as a new strategy in analyzing over-the-top (OTT) traffic at high speeds. Napatech's recent whitepaper, "Time to ReThink Real-Time Big Data Analytics," explores the value propositions of big data analytics in the telecom environment.

To take advantage of RTBDA, telecom carriers must consider the strategic use of probes and appliances already in the network. Napatech accelerators have been engineered to advance these efforts:

Accelerating RTBDA with zero packet loss – Designed for network management, security and big data analysis applications, while ensuring zero packet loss and guaranteed delivery of analysis data, no matter the network conditions.
Time stamping in real time – Time stamping with nanosecond resolution, allowing precise measurement of jitter and delay in mobile networks, which enables QoE analysis.
Effectively separating and analyzing each service used by a subscriber – By extracting information from GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP) and IP-in-IP tunnels, Napatech accelerators enable efficient analysis of applications and services used by subscribers.
Enabling flexible, scalable network applications – By leveraging Napatech products and commercial off-the-shelf servers, network equipment manufacturers are able to build appliances that provide intelligent analysis, regardless of the environment. Products range from 1 to 100 Gbps, enabling the understanding and acceleration of real-time data for full visibility of all network traffic.

Peter Ekner, CTO, Napatech, said:

"Modern telecom network managers need to reconsider the meaning of 'real time' to gain insight into big data associated with the influx of user data. By considering RTBDA in a more strategic way, they will gain a better source of information for planning decisions, while opening up new opportunities for additional services, not only to the end user, but also to OTT service providers, thus addressing the issue of monetizing traffic in these environments."
