Combine BlueCat Integrity with LiveAction network observability for total awareness

Shift to proactive, intelligent network operations when you combine a DDI foundation with network performance monitoring solutions.

Welcome to the era of network intelligence.

Combining the authoritative DDI foundation of BlueCat Integrity with LiveAction’s market-leading Network Performance Monitoring (NPM) solutions, LiveNX and LiveWire, empowers organizations to shift from reactive management to proactive, intelligent network operations—fully aligned with modernization initiatives, cloud migration, and security enhancements.

The problem: Lack of full network visibility

Without full visibility into traffic flows, application performance, and packet-level activity, network blind spots can threaten uptime, user satisfaction, and security.

Modern enterprise networks are growing more complex, fragmented, and difficult to secure. While BlueCat Integrity provides a rock-solid foundation for DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (together known as DDI), many organizations still struggle with real-time performance monitoring, deep packet visibility, and rapid troubleshooting across hybrid, cloud, and on-premises environments. Today’s network operations teams need more than control—they need dynamic observability to proactively detect issues, accelerate resolution, and optimize end-user experience.

A combined solution: BlueCat Integrity and LiveAction Network Performance Monitoring

By integrating BlueCat Integrity’s authoritative DDI foundation with LiveAction’s market-leading Network Performance Monitoring (NPM) solutions, LiveNX and LiveWire, organizations can achieve:

  1. End-to-end network visibility from the infrastructure layer (DNS, DHCP, and IP address) to application and user experience
  2. Unified troubleshooting that combines authoritative network data with real-time traffic and packet analysis
  3. Proactive performance assurance by identifying and resolving issues before they impact operations

Key combined solution benefits

  • Full stack visibility: Map and monitor network performance from the core (DDI management) to the edge (packet and flow-level traffic), eliminating blind spots across hybrid and multicloud environments.
  • Accelerated troubleshooting: Combine DNS and IP data with dynamic traffic analysis to rapidly identify, diagnose, and fix issues—reducing mean time to resolution (MTTR) and improving service levels.
  • Optimized performance and security: Correlate DDI events with flow and packet data to detect anomalies faster, prevent misconfigurations, and enhance resilience against outages and attacks.
  • Operational efficiency: Enable NetOps and SecOps teams to collaborate better by offering a unified, correlated view of infrastructure, traffic, and user behavior—dramatically reducing tool sprawl and complexity.
  • Change-ready network modernization: Support digital transformation, hybrid work, and cloud-first strategies with scalable, intelligent network operations capabilities.

Key features

BlueCat Integrity:

  • Centralized DNS, DHCP, and IP address management with policy-driven governance
  • Role-based access control, compliance auditing, and automated change tracking
  • API-first architecture to integrate across network and security ecosystems

LiveNX (NPM):

  • Real-time and historical flow visualization (NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, etc.)
  • End-to-end application-aware path monitoring across hybrid networks and SD-WAN
  • Anomaly detection and predictive performance insights powered by AI and machine learning

LiveWire (Packet Intelligence):

  • High-fidelity packet capture and deep forensic analysis
  • Transaction-level visibility to troubleshoot latency, packet loss, or application slowdowns
  • On-demand packet playback and investigation for incident response and performance optimization

Why this combination matters, and why it matters now

With BlueCat and LiveAction together, network teams move beyond simply monitoring infrastructure to achieving real network intelligence and proactive control.The combination of BlueCat Integrity and LiveAction Network Observability helps you transform your network from a risk to a competitive advantage.

Organizations can:

  • Reduce security risk by correlating DNS, DHCP, and IP conflicts with network behaviors
  • Accelerate troubleshooting by seeing packet, flow, and service data side-by-side
  • Improve resilience and agility for hybrid and cloud-first architectures

Enterprises face rising expectations for network reliability, performance, and security—even as complexity surges. By pairing BlueCat Integrity with LiveAction’s Network Observability suite, organizations can confidently modernize their infrastructure, enhance operational resilience, and deliver exceptional digital experiences at scale. We help unlock the intelligent network operations that today’s enterprises demand.
