Migrate from Any DDoS Platform to Flowtriq
Flowtriq supports direct migration from every major DDoS protection platform — open-source tools, hardware appliances, cloud scrubbing services, and gaming-focused networks. The migration path is the same in every case: install the ftagent on each Linux server alongside your current solution, let baselines form over 24–72 hours, then decommission your old platform with confidence.
From FastNetMon (Community & Advanced)
FastNetMon detects threshold violations in aggregated flow data from your routers. Flowtriq installs directly on each server as a kernel-level agent, providing per-packet visibility that flow sampling fundamentally cannot give you. Your existing BGP sessions (ExaBGP, GoBGP, BIRD, FRRouting) are reused by Flowtriq's BGP adapter — no peer changes required. What FastNetMon advanced doesn't have: attack classification, PCAP forensics, dynamic baselines, and 12+ alert channels. What Flowtriq adds: all of those, plus AI summaries and a 4-level auto-escalation engine.
From Wanguard (Andrisoft)
Wanguard's Sensor + Filter architecture monitors flow data and diverts traffic via BGP for scrubbing. Flowtriq's ftagent replaces the Sensor with per-server packet analysis, and Flowtriq's 46 auto-mitigation rule types replace the Filter's BGP diversion for most attack scenarios. Both your sFlow/NetFlow sources and BGP sessions can be carried forward directly.
From Hardware Appliances (Corero, Arbor APS, Radware, A10)
Hardware appliances provide inline mitigation but typically require significant CAPEX, dedicated management infrastructure, and ongoing maintenance. Flowtriq is SaaS — no hardware to provision, no server to patch, no licenses to renew. For hosting providers and cloud operators who already have Linux servers, adding a per-server agent is operationally simpler than maintaining appliances. Flowtriq also exposes per-server granularity that inline appliances often aggregate away.
From Cloud Scrubbing (Cloudflare Magic Transit, AWS Shield, Akamai Prolexic)
Cloud scrubbing services protect at the network edge. They're excellent at absorbing large volumetric attacks before they hit your transit links. What they cannot provide is per-server packet-level visibility: exactly which server was targeted, what the attack looked like at the packet level, and PCAP evidence for forensics or abuse reports. Flowtriq and cloud scrubbing services are complementary — run Flowtriq agents on your servers for server-level visibility, and use cloud scrubbing for transit-level absorption on your largest attacks.
From Gaming-Focused Networks (CosmicGuard, Path.net)
Gaming DDoS protection services use anycast BGP to absorb floods at the network level. They're optimized for UDP traffic and low-latency routing. Flowtriq installs on each game server to provide visibility into what's actually reaching the server, classification of UDP flood variants, PCAP capture for every incident, and server-level mitigation for attacks that bypass or precede network-level protection.
