Differences between Google Cloud and AppNeta

This page describes key differences between Google Cloud and AppNeta by Broadcom.

If you already have an AppNeta instance as part of your network monitoring implementation, you can't combine your current AppNeta monitoring solution with Cloud Network Insights. Cloud Network Insights is associated with a unique AppNeta instance and can't be associated with a different instance.

Differences in identity and access management

While identity and access management is handled differently between the two platforms, Google's Identity and Access Management takes precedence over AppNeta's access control.

Any access granted to your Google user account grants the same access in AppNeta.

Differences between alarms and alerts

In Cloud Network Insights, AppNeta uses alarms and alarm rules to generate events and logs that are sent to Cloud Monitoring. Those logs can then be used to create alerts and notifications in Cloud Network Insights.

Some of Google Cloud's logs and AppNeta's logs are different. The following table maps the difference between alarm log severity.
