Gigamon announced the launch of the Gigamon Metadata Empowered Program, the company’s first developer program.
This program enables technology partners to deliver the next generation of application-aware solutions, with over 5,000 application and protocol related metadata attributes, for deeper insights into application and user behavior.
The Gigamon Metadata Empowered Program provides partners with the resources to integrate their tools with Gigamon Application Metadata Intelligence to create more effective and efficient solutions. To accelerate success, the program offers a range of support, including design and development assistance and comprehensive go-to-market support under the Gigamon Catalyst Partner program.
Gigamon Metadata Empowered applications are now available from partners including FireEye, Flowmon, Plixer, Spirent and Viavi. In addition, new partners such as Active Countermeasures, Netflow Auditor and WitFoo have become Gigamon Technology Alliance partners specifically to take advantage of the comprehensive technical development and sales support Gigamon offers its partners.
“Security and network monitoring tools are only as effective as the data they receive. Our program integrates partner tools to provide access to a treasure trove of previously inaccessible data about applications and protocols, including OT, ICS and SCADA. SecOps can now identify security threats more quickly and precisely and NetOps can pinpoint application performance issues before they impact the customer experience,” said Bassam Khan, VP, Product Marketing and Technical Solutions Engineering, Gigamon.
“Gigamon is committed to delivering high value solutions to our customers through our Metadata Empowered partners,” said Michelle Hodges, VP, Worldwide Channels and Alliances, Gigamon. “We are excited to expand our programs with partners that share the same vision and drive to provide cutting edge solutions to the market, while creating opportunities for additional value for these partners and their Gigamon business.”

If your best engineers spend their days sorting tickets and resetting access, you are wasting talent. New global data shows that employees in the IT sector rank among the least motivated across industries. They're under a lot of pressure from many angles. Pressure to upskill and uncertainty around what agentic AI means for job security is creating anxiety. Meanwhile, these roles often function like an on-call job and require many repetitive tasks ...
In a 2026 survey conducted by Liquibase, the research found that 96.5% of organizations reported at least one AI or LLM interaction with their production databases, often through analytics and reporting, training pipelines, internal copilots, and AI generated SQL. Only a small fraction reported no interaction at all. That means the database is no longer a downstream system that AI "might" reach later. AI is already there ...
From Fragmented Systems to Intelligent Platforms: An ITIL+ Playbook for Enterprise IT Transformation
In many organizations, IT still operates as a reactive service provider. Systems are managed through fragmented tools, teams focus heavily on operational metrics, and business leaders often see IT as a necessary cost center rather than a strategic partner. Even well-run ITIL environments can struggle to bridge the gap between operational excellence and business impact. This is where the concept of ITIL+ comes in ...
UK IT leaders are reaching a critical inflection point in how they manage observability, according to research from LogicMonitor. As infrastructure complexity grows and AI adoption accelerates, fragmented monitoring environments are driving organizations to rethink their operational strategies and consolidate tools ...
For years, many infrastructure teams treated the edge as a deployment variation. It was seen as the same cloud model, only stretched outward: more devices, more gateways, more locations and a little more latency. That assumption is proving costly. The edge is not just another place to run workloads. It is a fundamentally different operating condition ...
AI can't fix broken data. CIOs who modernize revenue data governance unlock predictable growth-those who don't risk millions in failed AI investments. For decades, CIOs kept the lights on. Revenue was someone else's problem, owned by sales, led by the CRO, measured by finance. Those days are behind us ...
Over the past few years, organizations have made enormous strides in enabling remote and hybrid work. But the foundational technologies powering today's digital workplace were never designed for the volume, velocity, and complexity that is coming next. By 2026 and beyond, three forces — 5G, the metaverse, and edge AI — will fundamentally reshape how people connect, collaborate, and access enterprise resources ... The businesses that begin preparing now will gain a competitive head start. Those that wait will find themselves trying to secure environments that have already outgrown their architecture ...
Ask where enterprise AI is making its most decisive impact, and the answer might surprise you: not marketing, not finance, not customer experience. It's IT. Across three years of industry research conducted by Digitate, one constant holds true is that IT is both the testing ground and the proving ground for enterprise AI. Last year, that position only strengthened ...
