AMX Application Deployment Options

AMX application can be deployed on:

o   Hardware (AMI)
o   Hardware (Control Plane Metadata)
o   Virtual (VMware)

On-Premises

Hardware (AMI)

In hardware deployments, the Application Metadata Intelligence (AMI) runs on a physical node/cluster, and the AMX application is deployed on a GigaVUE V Series Node running on VMware ESXi. The output from the AMI in CEF format is sent to the AMX application in V Series Node. The performance of the device and the application is managed by GigaVUE-FM. The following devices support the integration of AMX application:

  • GigaVUE-HC1
  • GigaVUE-HC2
  • GigaVUE-HC3
  • GigaVUE‑HC1-Plus

Hardware (Control Plane Metadata)

In hardware deployments, the GTP Correlation Engine runs on a physical node/cluster, and the AMX application is deployed on a GigaVUE V Series Node running on VMware ESXi. The output from the GTP Correlation Engine in Flat or Hierarchical JSON format is sent to the AMX application in V Series Node. The performance of the device and the application is managed by GigaVUE-FM. The GigaVUE-HC3 Gen3 devices support the integration of AMX application.

Private Cloud (VMware)

In the Private Cloud environment, the application is supported only on VMware and can be deployed in the VMware as shown in the diagram.

 

Public Cloud

In the Public Cloud environment, the application is supported on AWS and Azure platforms, and can be deployed as shown in the diagram:
