Why Choose Aviz Service Nodes?
Open Integration
- Connect to open-source or commercial observability and security tools using flexible metadata export and modern pipelines.
- No vendor lock-in, no proprietary formats—just clean, structured data flowing to your preferred analytics stack.
Software-Defined Performance
- Run on commodity servers and your choice of NICs/DPUs—scale throughput without proprietary appliance lock-in.
- Deploy on bare metal, virtual machines, or containers to match your infrastructure strategy.
Always-Current DPI
- Dynamic DPI updates keep application and protocol detection accurate as the network ecosystem changes—without downtime.
- New apps, protocols, and threat signatures deploy automatically, ensuring your visibility never falls behind.
Lower Noise, Higher Signal
- Built-in packet deduplication reduces mirrored/replicated traffic noise, so your analytics focus on true flows.

Flow Sampling
Scale analysis without infrastructure overload
Metadata for Security, Compliance, and Operations
Aviz DPI extracts contextual metadata per flow so teams can enforce policies, investigate incidents, and optimize networks with precision—then export it to your tools in real time.
Every flow generates rich metadata that goes far beyond basic NetFlow or IPFIX. Capture application-layer details that reveal user behavior, security posture, and operational performance. Stream this intelligence to your existing SIEM, analytics platform, or data lake without custom integration work.
Metadata enrichment happens in-line with wire-speed performance, ensuring zero impact on production traffic while delivering the context your security and operations teams need.

The Real Cost Of Your Options
Wire-speed DPI performance on commodity hardware — no proprietary appliances, no throughput compromises, no licensing surprises.
Horizontal Scaling
Add service nodes as traffic grows — no forklift upgrades, no capacity ceilings. Scale throughput linearly by deploying additional software instances on commodity servers.
Hardware Flexibility
Run on any x86 server with your choice of NICs and DPUs. No vendor lock-in to proprietary appliances — deploy on existing infrastructure or purpose-built hardware.
Validate DPI-driven visibility, reduce traffic noise with deduplication, and integrate metadata into your SIEM/analytics stack. Discover how Aviz Service Nodes deliver granular network intelligence without the cost and complexity of proprietary hardware.
Join network operators, security teams, and service providers who have transformed their visibility posture with software-defined DPI. Schedule a technical demonstration to see application identification, metadata extraction, and real-time export in action on your own traffic samples.
Aviz Service Nodes gave us the application-level visibility we needed without forcing us into another proprietary appliance. The metadata export to our existing SIEM was seamless, and the DPI accuracy exceeded our expectations.
