What is Accedian Skylight?
Generate performance data, in the most granular,
precise and efficient way.

Collect and store that data in a scalable

manner.
Analyze that data and produce insights
that can have meaningful impact on our
customers business & their end
customers QoE.

Manage all of this in a way that can be

fully automated and orchestrated.

 Performance Analytics
• Accedian and 3rd party network
& application telemetry can
generate billions of data points
daily
• Skylight performance analytics
is a cloud native big data
service to analyze data at
telemetry scale
• Leverage machine learning and
AI to correlate events, detect
anomalies and gain insight in to
network and application
performance

 Key Differentiators

• Visibility across all areas of the network

• Mobile networks, core networks, enterprise, datacenter, cloud, containers

• Visibility across all layers of the network

• L2 (Ethernet) through L7 (application)

• Unsurpassed performance visibility, data granularity and ability to detect

performance issues
• See what other solutions miss

 Key Differentiators

• Fully virtualized / software based solution

• With the addition of Accedian hardware where there is no compute platform
available

• Scale & performance

• Skylight deployed in some of the largest networks in the world
• Millions of elements and sensors generating billions of performance measurements
every day

• Big Data & Machine Learning

• Leverage the power of Skylight analytics to gain insight in to network and application
performance, turning billions of measurements in to usable insight

 Key Differentiators

• Open APIs
• Skylight is a first class citizen in an automated network, with open APIs and event
busses for integration in to orchestration and IT systems
• Enable closed loop automation with real-time performance insight

• Disruptive TCO
• All of this for a fraction of the cost of legacy network & application performance
monitoring vendors
