Product information

Do you have complete visibility into your cloud network data? APCON’s IntellaCloud for AWS monitoring is a cloud-native visibility solution that captures, optimizes, and delivers cloud traffic to anywhere within a hybrid visibility fabric, significantly increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of your existing security, analytics and performance-monitoring tools, be they SaaS or on-prem.

Reduce data transfer costs

Packet Slicing reduces the usage cost of incloud security, analytics, and performance monitoring appliances, and significantly lowers data transfer fees for mirrored traffic packets forwarded to on-premises tools.

Automatic resource discovery

Dynamic discovery of multiple interfaces and containers on an EC2 instance allows real time monitoring of network traffic including traffic between Docker or other endpoints.

Deep visibility that scales

Elastic monitoring enables IntellaCloud to automatically scale up and down with your AWS infrastructure, improving security while having a low maintenance overhead.

Optimize for security & performance

Comprehensive filtering including source and destination IPs and ports. Send only traffic of interest to your security and performance monitoring tools.

Lightweight install

Collection is achieved via cloud-native microservices architecture deployed to each instance to be monitored. The agent can copy all traffic or just look for specific types of traffic, applying filters and performing Packet Slicing.

Easy management

See your current visibility and top traffic connections at a glance. From the intuitive user interface, maintain control over your visibility platform by easily creating connections through dynamic filtering by VPC, subnet or instance name.

AWS visibility

IntellaCloud

IntellaCloud captures packet-level network traffic from instances you want to monitor and can be configured for elastic monitoring using subnet or instance tagging.

The IntellCloud AWS visibility solution.

Visualize your cloud monitoring

The IntellaCloud dashboard allows you to easily see your current visibility across all instances, how your environment has scaled over time and which monitoring connections are most active.

Explore your environment

The Topology Screen allows you to quickly understand your entire environment. You can easily select VPCs and Subnets to see what instances are there and which ones are being monitored.

Enable elastic monitoring

Quickly select all instances by subnet or tag and enable elastic monitoring for automated visibility that scales up and down as needs arise.

Frequently asked questions

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Reach out to our customer support team.

How many instances can we monitor using IntellaCloud?
APCON engineers have tested IntellaCloud on thousands of instances. We've designed the GUI for scalability. Our virtual controller and the monitoring infrastructure scale up as your environment grows. We have not identified a hard number of how many instances IntellaCloud can monitor, but our extensive testing shows you can monitor thousands of instances.
How many additional instances does IntellaCloud launch in my existing cloud environment?
The IntellaCloud setup launches two instances. First, APCON IntellaCloud launches a virtual controller (VC) — an instance that aggregates all the traffic. A second EC2 instance launches and runs the IntellaCloud software. The two instances are capable of handling between 10 to 15 virtual TAPs. IntellaCloud spawns additional VCs as your environment scales up, and more traffic comes through each virtual controller to ensure traffic isn't dropped. Additional VCs are required for 10 to 20 Virtual TAPs.
Do you use VPC mirroring, or is this APCON's solution?
APCON's solution is our TAP-based solution that allows you to monitor containers, which we believe is superior to VPC mirroring. APCON's approach also provides key advantages — elastic monitoring and the ability to send traffic to multiple tools — beyond the native VPC mirroring that comes from AWS.
What kind of containers can you monitor?
With APCON IntellaCloud, you can monitor Docker containers and Linux containers.
How can you get these agents installed, and how do you make sure the agents are getting installed on new instances?
Most of our customers have a golden image they use for AMI types to spawn new instances when they set up their cloud environment. We recommend AMI which has our IntellaCloud VTAP agent pre-installed and ready to monitor when new instances are launched.
How can I know how much traffic is going to my tool in the cloud, and can I limit the amount of traffic for a given tool?
The current IntellaCloud release has a screen that shows how much traffic goes to each tool. The upcoming IntellaCloud release includes a threshold where you can specify how much traffic you want certain tools to receive. If traffic to the tool exceeds the specified threshold, you will receive an alarm via email or SMS.
