NETSCOUT, a leading provider of observability, AIOps, cybersecurity, and DDoS protection solutions, has announced significant improvements in the energy efficiency of its InfiniStreamNG platform. With an optimized architecture, the company helps organizations reduce operational costs, lower emissions, and make their data center infrastructure more sustainable.

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global electricity consumption by data centers could double by 2030. In the U.S. alone, data centers will consume more energy than the combined production of aluminum, steel, cement, chemicals, and other energy-intensive goods. The main drivers of this growth are digital transformation and the rapid spread of artificial intelligence.

NETSCOUT Architecture: Simplicity and Efficiency

The nGeniusONE and InfiniStreamNG solutions are designed to deliver deep network visibility and analytics. Unlike multi-component systems, InfiniStreamNG consolidates key functions into a single device, reducing the amount of equipment needed and enabling more energy-efficient deployments.

Key Benefits of the NETSCOUT Approach:

23% reduction in energy consumption (average across 10 customers with more than 500 InfiniStreamNG devices).
Less equipment in racks, saving space and significantly reducing power usage.
Intelligent data processing through traffic filtering by required protocols and ports only, which lowers compute and storage requirements.

NETSCOUT Commentary

“By leveraging our deep hardware expertise, we have optimized the InfiniStreamNG platform to reduce complexity, energy consumption, and operational costs — all while maintaining the network visibility needed to manage today’s increasingly complex environments,” said Ray Jones, Senior Director of Platform Product Management at NETSCOUT. “This capability is critical as organizations face increasing pressure to enhance data center efficiency in response to the explosive growth driven by AI.”

NETSCOUT’s commitment to sustainability goes beyond product design — it also extends to the company’s own operations. NETSCOUT has set science-based emissions reduction targets, committing to reduce absolute greenhouse gas emissions for Scope 1 (direct emissions) by 57.4% and for Scope 2 (indirect emissions from electricity use) by 42% by fiscal year 2030 compared to the fiscal year 2022 baseline.
