In today’s complex cloud environments, traditional network visibility tools fail to provide the necessary context to understand and troubleshoot application performance issues. In this post, we delve into how network observability bridges this gap by combining diverse telemetry data and enriching it with contextual information.

In this post, we look at optimizing cloud network routing to avoid suboptimal paths that increase latency, round-trip times, or costs. To mitigate this, we can adjust routing policies, strategically distributing resources, AWS Direct Connects, and by leveraging observability tools to monitor performance and costs, enabling informed decisions that balance performance with budget.

In this post, explore the challenges of diagnosing network traffic blockages in AWS due to the complex and dynamic nature of cloud networks. Learn how Kentik addresses these issues by integrating AWS flow data, metrics, and security policies into a single view, allowing engineers to quickly identify the source of blockages enhancing visibility and speeding up the resolution process.
