Gigamon announced that the GigaVUE Cloud Suite for VMware has obtained VMware Ready certification.
This milestone demonstrates delivery of comprehensive application visibility across complex hybrid environments, including east-west traffic, at scale. GigaVUE efficiently collects, aggregates, processes and selectively filters traffic before forwarding to the proper security and analytics tools, enabling network optimization and security. GigaVUE is now interoperable with VMware’s NSX-T and vCenter Server through APIs for improved agility, reduced manual management tasks and enhanced return on investment (ROI).
IT and InfoSec teams can now fortify their security and optimize their operations by:
- Automating deployment of virtual TAPs using NSX Dynamic Service Insertion
- Monitoring micro-segmented, multi-tenant environments
- Discovering new workloads and those dynamically relocated via VMware vMotion
“We are pleased that Gigamon and GigaVUE Cloud Suite for VMware qualifies for the VMware Ready logo, signifying to customers that it has met specific VMware interoperability standards and works effectively with VMware technologies. This signifies to customers that GigaVUE Cloud Suite for VMware can be deployed in production environments with confidence and can speed time to value within customer environments,” said Kristen Edwards, Director, Technology Alliance Partner Program at VMware.
“We must work together on simplifying cloud visibility. Gigamon and VMware have created a solution that automates deployment and discovery of new and relocated workloads, enabling next-generation digital enterprises to run fast and stay more secure,” said Ananda Rajagopal, VP of Products and Solutions at Gigamon. “Certified ecosystem solutions expedite successful deployment and operations and this latest product certification serves as a strong validation of our combined solutions for customers.”

Many organizations assumed their infrastructure strategy was settled. It had been implemented, optimized and built into long-term plans. Recent changes in technology and vendor consolidation are forcing a second look. Cloud outages and licensing changes have exposed how much dependency exists on a small number of platforms. As a result, organizations are reevaluating whether those decisions still hold up under current conditions ...

For years, production operations teams have treated alert fatigue as a quality-of-life problem: something that makes on-call rotations miserable but isn't considered a direct contributor to outages. That framing doesn't capture how these systems fail, and we now have data to show why. More importantly, it's now clear alert fatigue is a symptom of a deeper issue: production systems have outgrown the current operational approaches ...
I was on a customer call last fall when an enterprise architect said something I haven't been able to shake. Her team had just spent four months trying to swap one AI vendor for another. The original plan said three weeks. "We didn't switch vendors," she told me. "We rebuilt half our integrations and discovered what we'd actually been depending on." Most enterprise leaders don't expect that to be the experience ...
Ask any senior SRE or platform engineer what keeps them up at night, and the answer probably isn't the monitoring tool — it's the data feeding it. The proliferation of APM, observability, and AIOps platforms has created a telemetry sprawl problem that most teams manage reactively rather than architect proactively. Metrics are going to one platform. Traces routed somewhere else. Logs duplicated across multiple backends because nobody wants to be caught without them when something breaks. Every redundant stream costs money ...
