"Now, we are getting the granular and aggregate data views and analysis we need to manage our capacity requirements and to shorten our planning and implementation cycles," added Mr. Li
The NetEnforcer selected by SINA is from Allot's line of carrier-class devices. "Obtaining accurate network intelligence about user and application traffic is a critical first step to managing bandwidth resources and assuring quality of experience," said Rami Hadar, President and CEO of Allot Communications. "Allot solutions are purposely designed to help dynamic and fast-growing service providers like SINA.com fulfill customer expectations and demand, without over-investing in additional bandwidth resources."
