Overview

Large network infrastructures process flow data from many sources across multiple locations. While a single Flowmon Collector can handle flow data processing, this approach has limitations. As your network grows, you will reach the processing capacity of a single unit.

The Distributed Architecture (DA) solves these challenges by providing:

• High scalability through distributed flow data processing
• Load balancing across multiple units
• Easy addition of units to increase performance and storage
• Central management console for all units
• Unified configuration of remote units
• Centralized data aggregation and visualization

You can deploy the Distributed Architecture across multiple geographical locations while maintaining central control of your entire network monitoring infrastructure.
