Aviz Networks details Network Copilot ASN analytics

Aviz Networks’ Network Copilot release 1.7.0 adds Aviz Service Node subscriber and application analytics through the ELK connector, allowing telco operators to query session data in natural language. The update focuses on conversational access to Elasticsearch-backed telemetry for bandwidth, mobility, KPI, and application analysis.

Product Update

The release connects ASN analytics and session metadata to Network Copilot through the existing ELK data connector. Once ASN exports data to Elasticsearch, operators can point the connector to the relevant instance and index and begin querying the data in chat.

No ASN-specific modeling or dashboard build-out is required for the use case described in the blog. The setup is framed around using the data already present in the ELK stack and making it available inside Network Copilot.

Technical Breakdown

The blog describes ASN as continuously exporting session-level analytics to an Elasticsearch stack. The example index, user-session-data, contains more than 20 million session documents with ASN metadata such as destination, transport, and KPI fields.

Because the data is stored at the session level, Network Copilot can answer questions with granular detail. The blog says the same connector-based approach applies to subscriber, mobility, and application analytics without extra ASN configuration beyond the Elasticsearch target and index.

Operational Impact

Operators can ask plain-language questions such as total bandwidth consumed, subscriber counts, top subscribers by usage, and bandwidth usage by subscriber over a set period. The blog says Network Copilot returns answers in chat and can present results in bytes, GB, TB, tables, and charts.

The same query flow applies to radio and mobility questions, including RAT distribution, subscriber density by tower, handover counts, and subscribers with high handover activity. The blog also says operators can ask for latency, packet loss, and jitter views by subscriber or session.

Threat Analysis

The blog does not discuss security threats. It instead focuses on how operators can use conversational access to telemetry for network performance and usage analysis.

It also describes application analysis, including top bandwidth-consuming applications, usage by category, highest-latency application types, and worst-performing sessions by combined KPI score. Results can be displayed as charts, ranked lists, searchable tables, or CSV exports for follow-up review.

Leadership Perspective

The blog positions the release as a way to reduce dependence on dashboards and custom queries for telco analytics. It presents Network Copilot as a chat interface for accessing existing ASN data stored in Elasticsearch.

For enterprise network and telecom teams, the update centers on making session-level data easier to query and review. This Blog Signals brief is a fact-based summary of the vendor blog.
