INE Profiler, released by iTrinegy, enables organizations to accurately record the various network conditions that their applications are encountering in their existing production network.
This information can then be used to easily recreate highly realistic simulated network environments (network scenarios) in which any new application (or version) they are developing, testing or considering deploying can be thoroughly tested.
INE Profiler has been designed to answer the question ‘What are the characteristics of our own live network?’ and examines the actual traffic, both in terms of volume and type running over the network to determine the network’s characteristics. Using its real-time network packet analysis capability, INE Profiler provides information on overall network traffic, network response times (latency), bandwidth utilization, data loss and jitter.
"If you want to understand how your new applications will perform when rolled out into your production network then the best way is to carry out comprehensive pre-deployment testing in the most realistic network conditions possible," says Frank Puranik, Product Director for iTrinegy. “And not just any network, but a replication of the your own network, one that’s secure, accurate and repeatable, so no matter what changes need to made over the years, you have the tools to accommodate the changing IT of your organization”.
INE Profiler analyses the network traffic by extracting the network characteristics within a live networked environment, creating "network scenarios" for use with iTrinegy’s network emulator products.
In addition to generation of realistic network scenarios, INE Profiler has an highly intuitive widget-based GUI that provides extensive graphing capabilities for showing exactly what is happening on the network and as a result the user can easily see network conditions such as delays, latencies etc without being bogged down in detailed packet analysis.
With the continuing interest in migration to the Cloud, Virtualization, Data Center Consolidation as well as new application deployments, customers are looking to make significant changes to the way in which applications are being delivered to their end-users: the data collected by the INE Profiler helps to build up an accurate profile of a customer’s network usage and conditions. This allows for base-lining of both the network and applications traffic in order to later reconstruct a very realistic replication of the network environment.
INE Profiler comes in three versions: full rackmount, short-depth rackmount and a desktop version for for analysis on the go) depending on your network link speed requirements (10Mbps up to 1 Gbps).

Like most digital transformation shifts, organizations often prioritize productivity and leave security and observability to keep pace. This usually translates to both the mass implementation of new technology and fragmented monitoring and observability (M&O) tooling. In the era of AI and varied cloud architecture, a disparate observability function can be dangerous. IT teams will lack a complete picture of their IT environment, making it harder to diagnose issues while slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR). In fact, according to recent data from the SolarWinds State of Monitoring & Observability Report, 77% of IT personnel said the lack of visibility across their on-prem and cloud architecture was an issue ...
In MEAN TIME TO INSIGHT Episode 23, Shamus McGillicuddy, VP of Research, Network Infrastructure and Operations, at EMA discusses the NetOps labor shortage ...
Technology management is evolving, and in turn, so is the scope of FinOps. The FinOps Foundation recently updated their mission statement from "advancing the people who manage the value of cloud" to "advancing the people who manage the value of technology." This seemingly small change solidifies a larger evolution: FinOps practitioners have organically expanded to be focused on more than just cloud cost optimization. Today, FinOps teams are largely — and quickly — expanding their job descriptions, evolving into a critical function for managing the full value of technology ...
Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems. More often, complexity accumulates over time through well-intentioned initiatives, such as enterprise-wide digital transformation efforts, point solutions, or decentralized sourcing strategies ...
Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...
The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...
The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
AI workloads require an enormous amount of computing power ... What's also becoming abundantly clear is just how quickly AI's computing needs are leading to enterprise systems failure. According to Cockroach Labs' State of AI Infrastructure 2026 report, enterprise systems are much closer to failure than their organizations realize. The report ... suggests AI scale could cause widespread failures in as little as one year — making it a clear risk for business performance and reliability.
The quietest week your engineering team has ever had might also be its best. No alarms going off. No escalations. No frantic Teams or Slack threads at 2 a.m. Everything humming along exactly as it should. And somewhere in a leadership meeting, someone looks at the metrics dashboard, sees a flat line of incidents and says: "Seems like things are pretty calm over there. Do we really need all those people?" ... I've spent many years in engineering, and this pattern keeps repeating ...
