Networking in the cloud can be like a black box. In this blog we discuss five essential properties of network observability for cloud, giving you the ability to answer any question about your cloud network.
Read how this leading internet services provider in Latin America uses Kentik for peering and capacity planning and a real-time view of performance and availability throughout the network.
In order to answer any question, network observability requires a broad range of telemetry data. It takes a capable platform to make the data useful. In this 4th part in the network observability series, Avi Freedman describes requirements for the data telemetry platform.
Today we expand our partnership with New Relic. Together, we’re deepening New Relic’s full-stack observability into the network layer and giving IT operations, SREs and development teams shared context to resolve issues quickly.
As today’s economy goes online, network costs can be a determinant factor to business success.

Registered as GRS-DoD, AS8003 began announcing 11.0.0.0/8 among other large DoD IPv4 ranges.
In part 2 of the network observability series, we tackle the first key to the input needed for network observability — from what networks and network elements we gather telemetry data.
