Gigamon reports 51% share in 2025 deep observability

Gigamon reported that 650 Group placed it at 51% deep observability market share in 2025. The company linked the growth of deep observability to rising volumes of AI-related traffic, encrypted lateral traffic, and hybrid cloud and container environments.

The 650 Group report described the deep observability market as expanding 18% year over year, citing increased adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and more complex hybrid cloud and container environments. It also forecasted 29% Compound Annual Growth rate (CAGR) through 2030, when the segment was projected to reach nearly $2.1 billion in revenue.

Gigamon said its Deep Observability Pipeline delivered network-derived telemetry in the form of packets, flows, and metadata to cloud, security, and traditional observability tools. The materials described the telemetry as enabling detection of threats concealed in encrypted and lateral traffic, resolving network and application performance bottlenecks, and validating compliance, while increasing existing tool efficiency by up to 90 percent.

Alan Weckel, co-founder and analyst at 650 Group, said, “AI is rapidly intensifying cybersecurity challenges as data volumes surge and visibility becomes harder to maintain across increasingly complex cloud environments and evolving threats,” said Alan Weckel, co-founder and analyst at 650 Group. “Organizations are turning to deep observability to regain end-to-end insight into AI-driven data flows, strengthening security, improving performance, and enabling greater automation. As the fastest-growing segment we cover, deep observability is emerging as a critical data layer that delivers consistent, high-quality network intelligence to AI-driven systems and helps organizations realize and protect the value of their AI investments.”

Gigamon also described AI-focused additions introduced in 2025, including Gigamon AI Traffic Intelligence and Gigamon Insights. Gigamon AI Traffic Intelligence was described as providing real-time visibility into Generative AI (GenAI) and Large Language Model (LLM) traffic across 40+ leading engines, while Gigamon Insights was described as delivering instant guidance for Security and IT teams. Gigamon said AI Traffic Intelligence was available now, and Gigamon Insights was available in limited access to global customers.
