(ServiceNow + Kentik) From Reactive to Proactive: The Rise of Agentic Networks

Agentic AI is not just hype—it’s a force multiplier that enables infrastructure and operations teams to do more, with less effort, in less time. Importantly, it helps IT teams compress time to resolution and even proactively detect and respond to issues, before they escalate.

Real-time Alerting for Data Center Networks

Kentik’s Phil Gervasi shows how modern data centers—especially those powering AI workloads—can spot and fix problems before they impact performance or budgets. See how Kentik’s Data Explorer helps you identify disruptive flows, reclaim wasted network capacity, and turn insights into real-time alerts. With monitor-only mode and integrations with systems like PagerDuty and ServiceNow, your network becomes its own early warning system—driving uptime, cost savings, and better AI performance.

Why (Enriched) Flow Data Belongs in Every Network Operator's Daily Toolbox

Flow data has always held immense potential, but was often inaccessible because it lacked context and speed. Kentik removes that friction by automatically enriching flow with human-readable context, making it a daily driver for everyone, not just specialists.

The Starlink Outage and Its Impact on Community Gateways

Last month, Starlink suffered its largest outage in years, arguably its biggest since becoming a major internet provider. In addition to the millions of individual customers around the world, the outage disconnected the Community Gateways, customers of Starlink’s new transit service. In this post, we delve into the outage and its impact on these far-flung networks.

Data Center VXLAN Overlay Visibility at Scale

VXLAN overlays bring flexibility to modern data centers, but they also hide what operators most need to see: true host-to-host and service-to-service traffic. Kentik restores that visibility by decoding VXLAN from sFlow, exposing both overlay endpoints and underlay paths in a single view without the cost and complexity of pervasive packet capture — the result: faster troubleshooting, smarter capacity planning, and confident operations at scale.
