Hey Yassir,
The SevOne Solutions collectors do API polling/log ingestion for different metrics and present them in a common data model for Data Insight or NMS to consume, like say for SDWAN, the collectors do API polling on different Orchestrators to get statistics. This helps us get additional information not readily available via SNMP using the vPAS.
A lot of the documentation on what these collectors do is available in the link below:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/sevone-npm/6.3?topic=215-sd-wan-guides
Let me know if that helps.
Regards,

Hi Jason,
Thanks for the detailed information.
Is there any available documentation for what is the additional data (Information/Metrics/KPIs) does those collectors collect over the main SevOne Cluster components (vPAS & vDNC)?
Best Regards,
Y Shomase

SevOne's Solutions are sets of specialized collectors paired with new Data Insight widgets that expand the functionality of a base SevOne installtion.
SevOne's Wifi Solution is designed to be paired up with the latest Wi-Fi offerings from vendors such as Cisco and Aruba, the solution provides Wi-Fi monitoring and management capabilities that complement and extend upon the capabilities found in the built-in, vendor-provided, Wi-Fi management tools.
SevOne's SD-WAN Solution complements the management capabilities delivered with SD-WAN controllers by delivering continuous visibility into WAN infrastructure. With customizable, persona-based dashboards for network operations, network engineering and line of business owners, users now have greater insight into the network services running on them.
SevOne's SDN Solution complements and extends Cisco ACI's built-in control layer with performance management insight into both the software overlay and Nexus switch-based underlay network. This insight further extends to include multi-fabric views that add entirely new dimensions of performance monitoring functionality across their entire Cisco ACI deployment.
Hopefully this helps!
Regards,
Jason

Hi,
Name is Y. Shomase, an IBM Partner through PartnerWorld. Our company have been reviewing SevOne for sales and operation purposes. We are already aware of the virtual appliance deployment method over several platforms for Performance, Netflow as well using Insights to get reports from across the cluster. Media for such are vPAS and vDNC with several scaling and SDI for the Insights.
However, we noticed that there are solutions media are also offered under name of SDN, SD-WAN, WiFi. What are those media for with example of use cases?
