The Network Also Needs to be Observable, Part 2: Network Telemetry Sources

Kentik

Most of the history of network operations has been supported by monitoring tools, mostly standalone, closed systems, seeing one or a couple of network element and telemetry types, and generally on-prem and one- or few-node, without modern, open-data architectures. Application layer : ADCs, load balancers and service meshes.

Practical Steps for Enhancing Reliability in Cloud Networks - Part I

Kentik

When evaluating solutions, whether to internal problems or those of our customers, I like to keep the core metrics fairly simple: will this reduce costs, increase performance, or improve the network’s reliability? It’s often taken for granted by network specialists that there is a trade-off among these three facets. Resiliency.
