“With today’s enterprise networks comprised of thousands of devices from dozens of vendors running billions of lines of complex configurations, the sheer magnitude of these networks make it extremely challenging for even the most expert engineers to troubleshoot or prevent outages – at a time when organizations are more dependent on technology than ever,” said James Johnson, managing director, Mobile Breakthrough. “Forward Networks is delivering a breakthrough solution here that empowers teams with knowledge of all possible network behaviors. Congratulations to Forward Networks for winning the ‘Enterprise Cloud Computing Software of the Year’ award.”

With Forward Enterprise, every search returns full context – including layer 2 through layer 4 details, across overlays and underlays, whether virtual or physical, covering cloud or on-prem – so network operations can resolve the interruption or prove the network’s innocence. Additionally, the diffs function allows engineers to “go back in time” to understand the root cause of unexpected behaviors and prevent recurrences. More importantly, teams can start to get ahead by continuously verifying that intent matches observed behavior.
