ManageEngine announced the beta launch of the network configuration management add-on for NetFlow Analyzer, the real-time bandwidth and security analysis software.
By integrating network configuration management with traffic analysis, NetFlow Analyzer provides admins with a single console that lets them view traffic patterns, modify network configurations to optimize bandwidth utilization, and track changes to critical network devices.
ManageEngine is demonstrating NetFlow Analyzer with the new network configuration management add-on and exhibiting the rest of its security portfolio in booth K2 at Cisco Live Cancun 2014, being held Nov. 3-6, 2014, at Moon Palace Golf and Spa Resort, Cancun, Mexico.
"Simple configuration errors can bring an entire network to its knees, rendering business-critical apps inaccessible and resulting in revenue loss," said Dev Anand, director of product management at ManageEngine. “Keeping tabs on the 'who, what and when' concerning those changes is important for maintaining healthy SLAs on bandwidth and app responsiveness to end users. But most organizations adopt traffic analytics software to just gain intelligence on traffic patterns and leave configurations to manual methods. With the new integrated configuration management module, we provide a seamless experience for network engineers to bridge this gap."
With its network configuration management add-on, NetFlow Analyzer lets network admins understand the priorities set for apps and reconfigure those priorities without logging in to the end router or switch. Admins can now also periodically backup configurations, and if a faulty configuration is applied, admins can rollback to an old configuration with just a few clicks. This saves time and helps streamline bandwidth to critical apps in real time.
The new add-on also helps network admins react to advanced attacks such as DDoS, zero-day attacks, scans and probes in real time. NetFlow Analyzer provides visibility into such attacks as they happen on the network and notifies the admin. Now, admins can quickly block the IP address or reconfigure their network configurations instantly and protect the network from attack.
Additionally, the network configuration management add-on lets network admins easily compare configurations to quickly gain knowledge of the changes made. It also allows them to create compliance policies and receive alerts if they are violated. The new add-on is powered by DeviceExpert, ManageEngine’s network change and configuration management software.
In addition to the new add-on, NetFlow Analyzer gains new mobile apps that let customers access traffic information from their iPhones and Android devices. The new mobile apps offer inventory, alarms, traffic graphs and dashboards similar to those found on the NetFlow Analyzer web client.
The network configuration management add-on for NetFlow Analyzer is available immediately as a beta download. The iPhone and Android mobile apps are available now. See links below.

In live financial environments, capital markets software cannot pause for rebuilds. New capabilities are introduced as stacked technology layers to meet evolving demands while systems remain active, data keeps moving, and controls stay intact. AI is no exception, and its opportunities are significant: accelerated decision cycles, compressed manual workflows, and more effective operations across complex environments. The constraint isn't the models themselves, but the architectural environments they enter ...
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 ...

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.
