AI Meets Network Monitoring: Now What?

Join Dave Rubinstein, Editor-in-Chief of ITOps Times, as he hosts an enlightening discussion with Kentik's Leon Adato and Charlcye Mitchell on the convergence of AI and network monitoring. This webinar explores both the potential and limitations of AI in networking, providing a deep dive into how AI can add value and where it might be overhyped.

Simplifying Multi-cloud Visibility

Multi-cloud visibility is a challenge for most IT teams. It requires diverse telemetry and robust network observability to see your application traffic over networks you own, and networks you don’t. Kentik unifies telemetry from multiple cloud providers and the public internet into one place to give IT teams the ability to monitor and troubleshoot application performance across AWS, Azure, Google, and Oracle clouds, along with the public internet, for real-time and historical data analysis.

Time's Up! How RPKI ROAs Perpetually Are About to Expire

In RPKI, determining when exactly a ROA expires is not a simple question. In this post, BGP experts Doug Madory and Fastly’s Job Snijders discuss the difference between the expiration dates embedded inside ROAs and the much shorter effective expiration dates used by validators. Furthermore, we analyze how the behavior effective expiration dates change over time due to implementation differences in the chain of certificate authorities.
