Corvil announced its new flagship streaming analytics solution, the Corvil 8400, an 80Gbps streaming analytics appliance for wire data.
With this new appliance, Corvil establishes a performance benchmark of 60Gbps sustained L2-L7 streaming analysis of HTTP transactions. This enables clients to attain transparency, optimization, and cyber-threat detection across the most demanding enterprise environments and web scale applications. With this level of performance in a single 2U appliance, clients can consolidate their infrastructure and services instrumentation through greater aggregation driving lower cost and complexity across data center environments.
The new performance benchmark represents a fifty percent improvement in performance from the prior record benchmark of 40Gbps sustained wire data streaming analysis achieved by the Corvil 7450 platform.
In a recent research report, Gartner predicted "it is wire data - radically rethought and used in new ways - that will prove to be the most critical source of data for availability and performance management over the next five years."
Corvil wire data analytics uniquely extracts IT, security and business relevant information from packet data flowing in the network and transforms it into operational intelligence that is used to assure and safeguard critical business services and applications.
The Corvil 8400 is based on an innovative streaming analytics architecture which supports both real-time streaming analysis of packet data and optional packet data capture. Corvil supports both smart triggered packet capture or continuous packet capture to local storage on the appliance. This powerful architecture allows Corvil to support live and retrospective wire data analytics use cases where real-time monitoring, alerting and retrospective forensics of the source packet data can be done simultaneously, in a single appliance without compromise.
“We believe that the data flowing in the network is more valuable than the network itself. Corvil was the first company to empower customers to tap into this value with the introduction of our unique streaming analytics platform for wire data. Corvil has always been the price performance leader in this space. We are delighted to continue that tradition today with another industry first. Our new 80Gbps flagship appliance, the Corvil 8400, sets a new industry benchmark for performance and scale married with the best-in-class wire data analytics for IT, Security and Business intelligence,” says Donal Byrne, CEO of Corvil.
The Corvil 8400 software defined appliance is comprised of high performance bare metal hardware optimized to run Corvil’s modular streaming analytics platform for best price, performance and reliability combined. The Corvil 8400 bare metal hardware engine support two 40Gbps ports for a total of 80Gbps input data analysis and capture.
Highlights include support for:
- 80Gbps line rate bursts for all packet size profiles
- 60Gbps sustained L2-L7 streaming analytics for HTTP applications
- 200 – 300TB of local storage capacity with data compression
- 2U form factor
The Corvil 8400 is currently in early availability and will be generally available in August.

Enterprises today operate in a real-time environment where uninterrupted access to trusted data has become a baseline expectation for users, applications and automated systems. Traditional DataOps models, built on manual effort and human triage, cannot keep pace with this always active demand. AI agents are emerging as the operational backbone, ensuring consistent data availability, reinforcing trustworthiness and enabling a level of scale that manual processes cannot achieve ...
For decades, trust in the digital workplace rested on familiar signals. We trusted faces on video calls, voices on the phone, and emails that appeared to come from people we knew. These cues felt human and intuitive. They anchored how decisions were made, approvals were granted, and access was authorized. AI-powered deepfakes have quietly broken that model ...
Cloud migration was supposed to be a one-way door. For most enterprises, it turns out it isn't. Cloud data repatriation is a real and growing trend. A new survey ... finds that 89% of organizations plan to expand their on-premises infrastructure footprint over the next two years — and 75% have already moved at least some workloads back from public cloud in the past 24 months. The findings point to a broad rethinking of where data belongs ...
Over the past few years, large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the software industry. Given their ability to excel at multi-step reasoning, LLMs have helped enterprises streamline workflows and adapt to the unknown. However, employing such models comes with sky-high costs, latency issues, and limited flexibility. In the realm of IT operations, it is generally wiser to employ smaller, domain-specific models instead ...
For years, DevOps teams operated under a simple assumption: collect enough telemetry, and you can find and fix any problem. That assumption is breaking down. Modern enterprises now operate across microservices, hybrid cloud environments, APIs, Kubernetes, and highly automated delivery pipelines. Releases happen continuously, dependencies shift constantly, and failures spread faster than teams can diagnose them ...
New Relic surveyed IT and engineering leaders from the media and entertainment (M&E) sector to understand what's working — and where challenges persist with their observability practices. The findings reveal how M&E organizations are navigating rising platform complexity, audience expectations, and AI-driven change. Below are five takeaways that stand out ...
Let me start with something I've seen play out more times than I can count. A team hits a wall with the cloud. Costs creep up, then spike. Performance starts to feel inconsistent. Someone in finance asks a simple question like "why did this double?" and nobody has a clean answer ... Maybe this isn't the right place for everything. That realization feels like a breakthrough, like you've identified the problem. In reality, you've just identified the starting line ...

In cloud-native systems, scaling is often as simple as moving a slider. For on-premise databases, the stakes are different. Over-provisioning hardware is expensive. Under-provisioning leads to performance bottlenecks that are difficult to fix once the equipment is in the rack ...
When most people think about cybersecurity, they picture firewalls, encryption, and access controls — technical tools designed to protect systems and data.

And in many ways, cybersecurity offers a surprisingly useful playbook for doing exactly that ...
