Technology Overview

Qosmos delivers a range of Deep Packet Inspection and Network Intelligence technology components which provide detailed visibility into network activity:

  • ixEngine DPI/Network Intelligence SDK: software libraries providing protocol decoding technology, including real time metadata and content extraction. Available for x86 and multicore processors such as Tilera, Cavium or RMI.

  •  
  • ixMachine intelligent IP probes: passive probes that extract traffic metadata and content from IP flows, in real-time. A query function allows users to select what traffic attributes, content or packets are delivered by the probe.

Beyond Deep Packet Inspection

Qosmos technology goes beyond traditional Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology. In addition to recognizing traffic, Qosmos also extracts information (metadata) and feeds applications with detailed visibility on all network-based activity. In fact, we treat the network as a real-time database, to identify, query and extract specific data with great precision and detail.

Features

  • Real-time identification of traffic flows, at protocol level (e.g. HTTP), service level (e.g. Webmail) and application level (e.g. Yahoo! Mail)
  • Real-time discovery and delivery of information embedded in or computed from network traffic. Information can be traffic metadata (e.g. caller, sender email address, IMSI, URL visited) or content (packets, messages, files).
  • Data governance tools including selection / filtering capability and data correlation for analysis on flow, session, application, user/subscriber dimensions.

Protocol plugin library

  • Network protocols such as IP, TCP, UDP
  • Signaling protocols such as SIP, Sigtran
  • Protocols used in mobile networks such as GTP, mobile Instant Messaging
  • Media streaming protocols such as RTP
  • And hundreds of protocols and networked applications.
