Each network cluster arrangement of the set of network cluster arrangements includes a plurality of network devices configured for receiving and sending the network data traffic, and a set of monitoring network appliances configured for monitoring at least a portion of the network data traffic flowing between the plurality of network devices. The arrangement also includes a set of network data collection arrangements configured for at least storing the data pertaining to the network data traffic.

Integrated network data collection arrangement and methods thereof

A method for monitoring data associated with a virtual computing environment is provided. The method includes receiving virtually-originated data, wherein the virtually-originated data originated from a virtual server in the virtual computing environment and transmitted in the form of data packets. The method also includes encapsulating the virtually-originated data using a tunneling protocol, forming encapsulated traffic. The method further includes transmitting the encapsulated traffic to a tap device, wherein the tap device decapsulates the encapsulated traffic to recover a version of the virtually-originated data and forwards the version of the virtually-originated data to a monitoring device.
