Procera Reveals QoS Strategy

SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Procera Networks, Inc., the leader in QoS Everywhere(TM) solutions for application and bandwidth performance management, today revealed its executive team and strategy to capture the high-growth market for QoS in the LAN and MAN marketplace. QoS Everywhere(TM) is Procera Networks' global strategy for developing and marketing network products that deliver applications reliably, securely and perfectly calibrated to the Quality-of-Service needs of the user. The company's flagship offering, Procera MLS-XP, is the industry's first QoS Application Switch(TM) to prioritize applications and bandwidth at wire-speed in Layer 7 for 10/100/1000Mbps environments. Procera Networks has a series of patents pending for the MLS-XP's application prioritization, network optimization, and policy-creation technologies. Procera MLS-XP identifies and acts on individual data flows at the Application Layer, allowing mission-critical and latency-sensitive traffic to be precisely metered and tuned to the requirements of the user, workgroup, or enterprise. While competitive switches deliver a form of QoS by examining the port-level/Layer 4 packet header, these switches are limited to recognizing only an application type. At Layer 7, the MLS-XP distinguishes not only the application type, but also the actual purpose of the application packet. Procera Networks Inc.
