Why Internet Performance Monitoring is Non-Negotiable for Today's Websites and Apps

IT organizations are challenged with too many war rooms where the best people in the team waste time looking for the root cause of an issue. It’s not like we don’t have enough tools or that we are not leveraging AI. Why is everything ‘green’ while users are reporting issues? Are we simply looking in the wrong place?

Monitoring in the Age of Complexity: 5 Assumptions CIOs Need to Rethink

In 2025, the average enterprise juggles over 150 SaaS applications, hybrid cloud infrastructures, and a workforce that expects seamless digital experiences—yet most CIOs still rely on monitoring strategies built for the data center era. The result? A $1.5 trillion annual hit to global GDP from downtime and performance lags, according to recent industry estimates. The problem isn’t the tools—it’s the thinking behind them.

Critical Requirements for Modern API Monitoring

Enterprises lose millions annually due to API outages and performance degradation. Modern observability strategies are crucial to mitigate these risks. Today, almost every system is dependent on APIs. Data integration, authentication, payment processing, and many other functions rely on multiple reliable and performant APIs. Banks around the world, for example, have adopted the Open Banking API for payments, credit scoring, lending origination, fraud detection, and lots more.

Why Intelligent Traffic Steering is Critical for Performance and Cost Optimization

In today’s world of globally distributed applications, user experience is everything. Whether your platform runs across multiple cloud providers or uses a Multi CDN with numerous points of presence (PoPs), efficiently routing user traffic can make or break performance. That's where intelligent traffic steering becomes not just a nice-to-have, but a must-have.
