Identifying Idle Paths in a Data Center Leaf-Spine Fabric

In a perfect leaf-spine network, traffic evenly spreads across all links. But reality is often different, leaving costly, idle paths hidden in your data center fabric. Kentik's Phil Gervasi demonstrates how Kentik's network intelligence platform helps engineers quickly identify and address these underutilized paths. With powerful visualizations, detailed telemetry analysis, and customizable alerts integrated into your ticketing systems, Kentik makes it easy to spot persistent traffic imbalances, troubleshoot ECMP issues, and optimize your infrastructure.

Optimize AWS Transit Gateway Usage

AWS Transit Gateway simplifies network architecture by connecting multiple VPCs and on-premises networks through a centralized hub—but it's easy to incur unnecessary costs if not managed properly. Learn how Kentik provides deep visibility into your AWS Transit Gateway usage, quickly highlighting expensive or inefficient traffic patterns. Using Kentik's Data Explorer, we show how to identify unnecessary intra-VPC traffic that's adding costs and potentially degrading performance.
