With 4G/5G and emerging networks, the amount of traffic that carriers may need to monitor is staggering. Mobile networks may potentially exceed capacities over 50 TB/s in the next few years. And that traffic includes everything from video to voice, to text messages, to applications. Networks are becoming more complex, exacerbating the challenges of visibility and observability even as carriers need more of it.Monitoring and managing user plane traffic is crucial to avoid service failures. With a transition to 5G comes increased virtualization and software-defined networks. MNOs need support analytics and security across networks of varying domains, generations, and technologies.
