Components of GCB for Cloud Object Storage

The Gigamon Containerized Broker for cloud object storage works with the following components:

  • GigaVUE® Fabric Manager (GigaVUE-FM) is a web-based fabric management and orchestration interface that provides a single pane of glass visibility, management, and orchestration of both the physical and virtual traffic that form the GCB.
  • G-vTAP Container is the Traffic Acquisition Component of Gigamon's Network Visibility Offering. It receives mirrored traffic from various Networking Infrastructures and overlays (VXLAN) them to Gigamon Containerized Broker.
  • GCB Controller is the management component of GCB that controls the registration and deregistration with GigaVUE-FM. GCB Controller also sends the collected statistics of GCB and G-vTAP Containers to GigaVUE-FM.
  • GCB S3 is the storage service component of GCB that collects the mirrored packets from GCB Controller, converts to PCAP file and uploads it into Amazon S3.
