Cirries DART AI™ delivers AI-driven network observability and migration performance validation for AWS & hybrid cloud, using packet-derived intelligence and Amazon Bedrock for real-time RCA & faster MTTR
5
Overview
Cirries DART AI™ is an AI-powered network observability platform built for enterprises operating in Amazon Web Services (AWS) and hybrid cloud environments. It provides deep network monitoring, application performance visibility, and packet-derived intelligence across VPCs, multi-account architectures, Direct Connect links, and on-premises integrations.
Traditional cloud monitoring tools rely on metrics, logs, and flow records. DART AI enhances AWS-native monitoring by analyzing packet-level metadata and correlating it with AWS telemetry to deliver precise root cause analysis, real-time anomaly detection, and actionable performance insights.
DART AI transforms packet-derived metadata into the industry richest network intelligence dataset and feeds that intelligence into Amazon Bedrock to power advanced, AI-assisted root cause analysis (RCA). This enables enterprises to reduce Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR), validate workload performance during migrations, detect anomalies before users are impacted, and confidently operate complex multi-VPC and hybrid architectures.
DART AI is ideal for organizations seeking advanced AWS network monitoring, hybrid cloud observability, migration performance validation, and automated incident response.
Key Capabilities:
Advanced AWS Network Monitoring DART AI delivers deep visibility into:
- Application latency and response times
- Packet loss, jitter, and microburst detection
- East-west and north-south traffic analysis
- Multi-VPC performance monitoring
- Transit Gateway and Direct Connect traffic behavior
- Encrypted traffic performance analytics
Unlike basic flow monitoring tools, DART AI processes packet-derived metadata (without exporting raw traffic) to provide scalable and secure performance intelligence.
Hybrid Cloud Observability:
Enterprises running workloads across AWS and on-prem environments require unified visibility. DART AI enables:
- End-to-end service path validation
- Cross-account and cross-region observability
- Performance correlation across hybrid links
- Network dependency mapping
This makes DART AI a powerful solution for hybrid cloud monitoring and multi-cloud visibility strategies.
AI-Driven Anomaly Detection:
DART AI establishes behavioral baselines and continuously monitors for:
- Latency spikes
- Throughput anomalies
- Congestion events
- Configuration-related degradation
- Reachability failures
AI-assisted reasoning accelerates incident investigation and reduces Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR).
Cloud Migration Benchmarking:
DART AI supports AWS migration initiatives by providing:
- Pre-migration performance baselines
- Real-time validation during cutovers
- Post-migration performance verification
- SLA and application dependency validation
This ensures predictable migration outcomes and operational stability.
Native AWS Service Integration:
DART AI integrates seamlessly with core AWS services to support automation, security, and operational excellence.
Amazon Bedrock:
Integrate AI-powered incident summarization, remediation recommendations, and operational insights using Amazon Bedrock. DART AI combines network intelligence with generative AI to accelerate decision-making.
AWS Lambda:
Trigger automated workflows and remediation actions using AWS Lambda. DART AI enables event-driven automation for dynamic scaling, policy enforcement, and incident response.
Amazon EventBridge:
Publish structured network intelligence events to Amazon EventBridge for orchestration, alert routing, and ITSM integration.
AWS CloudTrail:
Correlate configuration changes, IAM updates, and infrastructure deployments captured in CloudTrail with observed network performance behavior.
Amazon VPC Flow Logs:
Enhance VPC Flow Logs with packet-derived performance analytics to gain deeper insight into dropped traffic, routing behavior, and application impact.

Financing for AWS Marketplace purchases
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
Dimension | Cost/hour |
|---|---|
t3a.xlarge | $3.37 |
m5n.xlarge | $3.37 |
m4.xlarge | $3.37 |
t3a.2xlarge | $3.37 |
m5.xlarge | $3.37 |
m5ad.xlarge | $3.37 |
m5dn.xlarge | $3.37 |
g4dn.xlarge | $3.37 |
m5a.xlarge | $3.37 |
m5d.xlarge | $3.37 |
Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour based on the AWS EC2 instance type you run DART AI on. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size, so your cost tracks the compute resources you select. The options span general-purpose families like t2, t3, t3a, m4, m5, and its variants (m5a, m5d, m5n, m5ad, m5dn), plus a g4dn GPU-backed instance. You choose the instance that fits your workload and pay only for the hours it runs. Larger or specialized instances carry different hourly rates, letting you match capacity to your network's scale.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Billing meters running instance-hours. When the instance is stopped, the hourly software charge stops. Note that stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees, but the DART AI software rate applies only while the instance runs.
One unit is one hour of a single running EC2 instance of that type. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size and compute profile. If you run multiple instances, each accrues its own hourly charge separately.
The g4dn.xlarge is GPU-backed, which suits the machine learning and generative AI processing DART AI uses for pattern learning, anomaly detection, and natural-language analysis. General-purpose t- and m-family instances handle standard observability workloads without GPU acceleration.

By combining continuous telemetry ingestion with AI-powered analytics, DART transforms raw network data into actionable intelligence across hybrid cloud architectures.
CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

Notes
- AWS Resources created by Cirries DART template: Identity and Access Management (IAM) Role, Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), Ec2, Cloudwatch, Amazon bedrock, Lambda, s3 These policies grant specific actions on various AWS resources (Resource) for different services such as EC2, DynamoDB, etc., allowing or denying certain operations based on conditions or resource constraints. This template appears to define permissions related to EC2 instances, DynamoDB tables, and specific actions like termination based on instance types.
- Please wait till Dart Cloudformation stack creation is completed then only create PacketSensor1Gbps and PacketSensor5Gbps
- Stack deletion order: When deleting stack, PacketSensor(1Gbps and 5Gbps) stack will be first and then Dart Cloudformation.
- Please subscribe to PacketSensor prodcts in order to get full use of solution.
