The Knowledge Discovery Engine (KDE) forms the central intelligence layer within the WanAware platform. The KDE aggregates and processes diverse datasets, encompassing asset inventories, performance metrics, security vulnerabilities, and network topology. These massive data lakes are designed to handle data streams for up to 100 billion assets simultaneously. The KDE uses AI, ML, and proprietary algorithms to process this data and turn it into actionable business insights.
The KDE uses a four-step process to analyze these datasets. First, AI is applied to add intelligence and build models directly against the data. Next, ML algorithms analyze the time-series data to establish patterns over time. The data is subsequently processed through the appropriate cloud-computing platform, allowing for efficient querying of relational data at scale. Finally, a graph database is used to understand the adjacency of resources and how different assets are connected.
Grand Scale Visibility and Intelligence
WanAware’s KDE provides a global perspective by monitoring every IP address on the planet, giving businesses a comprehensive view of network traffic and performance within the wider internet landscape. Unlike legacy observability tools, WanAware stores and analyzes historical data, enabling businesses to track changes, identify trends, and gain a deeper understanding of their network’s evolution over time. The KDE also excels at detecting behavioral shifts in network traffic by continuously analyzing data patterns. This allows businesses to identify potential issues before they impact users, enabling proactive measures to maintain network performance and availability.
The KDE drives WanAware’s powerful capabilities by automating data analysis and pattern recognition. This includes robust Website: Asset Inventory Management (AIM), real-time threat detection, comprehensive vulnerability scans, and support for Zero Trust principles, enabling organizations to optimize operations, strengthen security postures, and allocate resources more effectively. The KDE is also customizable, allowing customers to bring their own AI, ML, and algorithms into our platform.
By minimizing downtime, optimizing resource utilization, and strengthening security defenses, WanAware’s Knowledge Discovery Engine provides a unique and comprehensive solution for businesses seeking to gain deeper insights into their IT infrastructure and improve their overall performance, availability, and security.
