The Art of Network Management

  • Leveraging years of Network Management experience
  • Collecting and sharing best practices
  • From Engineers to Engineers

Sophisticated Discovery

  • Multi-protocol discovery
  • Changes tracking as a process
  • Keep database up-to-date automatically
  • Deep knowledge of network

Network Inventory

  • Centralized database
  • Auto-populated via discovery
  • Tracks all viable assets

Enforcing Policies

  • Define policies as the rules
  • Got notified on violations
  • Fix misconfigurations before they became a problem

Network Monitoring

  • Active and passive monitoring
  • Root-cause analysis and correlation
  • Flexible escalations

Vendor-agnostic

Breaking the vendor locks with 80+ of supported vendors. Adding new vendors and platforms on daily routine basis.

OpenSource

Distributed under the terms of BSD Licence. Large established community.

Microservices Architecture

Microservices architecture with flexible processing pipelines offers great amount of flexibility, customization and load balancing.

WebScale

Scale as you go. Starting from simple single-node installation and up to clusters controlling world’s largest networks with 300k+ of objects.

Big Data

Introduces Big Data analysis to the Network Management. Builtin analytics database and provided BI tools allows to

Discovery

Sophisticated multi-protocol network topology discovery. Configuration and resource usage discovery.

Inventory

Centralized database of physical and logical resources. Tracks physical assets like chassis and modules. Tracks logical resources (IP, VLAN, Phone Numbers) usage as well. IP address planning via IPAM.

Fault Management

Root Cause Analysis, topology correlation, escalation. Active probing and passive alarm condition detection in syslog and SNMP traps.

Performance Management

Flexible metrics collection via SNMP and CLI. Long-term metrics storage. Automatic configuration of dashboards. Complex threshold control with window functions.

Service Activation

Device interaction via telnet, SSH, web, TL1, MML and SNMP interfaces.

Network Automation

Complex network automation framework with simple-to-use Python API.

Integration

Plays nice with others. NOC is a part of your infrastructure. ETL interface allows to import data from existing systems. DataStream API and NBI interfaces provide services to other system.

Testimonials

We have worked with many users and we always like to hear they come out from the cooperation happy and satisfied. Have a look what our users said about us. Do not hesitate to fill an issue to express your thanks

  • Knowing NOC was the best solution we could’ve find! Solved all our problems related to devices management. We’re enjoying it since 2016, from the first public release!

NOC 18.1a1

on 12.09.2018

In accordance to our Release Policy we’re starting generation of 18.1 releases. microservices branch has been forked from main tree about 3 years ago and bring massive architecture changes addressing performance, stability and scalability issues. Considering amount of changes, we’d recommend migration to microservices only for advanced users, seeking particular benefits. All development efforts was focused on microservices and we must admit we’d reached excellent result. Microservices’ offsprings monitor very large networks and we’d got invaluable experience of dealing with 300k+ boxes by single cluster.

New Release Policy

on 12.09.2018

In order to finalize 3 years of microservices development and to switch from rolling release to more common release practice we introduce a new release policy. Further NOC releases will be organized into Generations - milestones on NOC platform evolution. Generation is versioned by two or three numbers: X.Y[.Z], where X - is two last letters of year, Y - is sequental number of generation within year (starting from 1). Z - is an optional number of hotfix release (starting with 1) The distance between generations is about one month.

Welcome to new site!

on 10.09.2018

NOC development team proudly presents new project’s site. New site location is https://getnoc.com/. Site is built by excellent Hugo site generator and based on heavily modified Hugo Universal theme. Source codes and build infrastructure are open-source and located at getnoc.com repo. All photo content on the site is user-contributed and we say thanks to our dear colleagues. Old site, http://nocproject.org/ is still online, though no longer maintained. PS: The Cat is the fellow member of DevTeam.
