The moment for network observability has come. Network diversity has never been higher, they are more intricate. However, they are more crucial to the success of an application or service. Naturally, consumers are less forgiving of bad experiences than they have ever been. Fortunately, there are businesses that address this at the systems, application, and even business management layers.

Businesses that are responsible for the network that supports vital services must provide answers to a few important queries like “Why is our data costs so high?” or, “When will we be at capacity?”. Companies need a thorough response as soon as possible, along with context. Kentik provides the required responses. Businesses may now view network data from the internet, cloud, edge, and data center thanks to Kentik. Network data can be enhanced with details on infrastructure, applications, users, customers, geopolitics, routing, cloud, host, and container flow, internet routing, performance testing, and network metrics.

Kentik: The Success Mantra

Kentik’s professional lives have been devoted to the creation and operation of extensive networks as network and service operators and developers. They are aware of the limitations of the current tools. They have always sought after — but never discovered — an infrastructure visibility solution that is inexpensive, scalable, strong, and user-friendly. Kentik was founded in order to provide that answer.

As network operators, they are aware that the most reliable source of information on any network query is actual traffic data. In order to provide the most comprehensive comprehension of a network, clients, and services, they gather traffic flow data at large volumes, annotate it with application and business context, and facilitate lightning-fast analytics for network smart users.

• The network matters more than ever: In the modern digital age, connectivity is crucial. Users, consumers, and revenue flow are all negatively impacted if packets are not moving. Companies are going to succeed if they manage their network well. If they run it badly, everything else is irrelevant.
• It’s not just one network anymore: Everything has changed with the internet, including the breakage of an old network appliances and tools. Being native to the internet, Kentik provides companies with real-time visibility wherever the traffic originates. With Kentik, companies can optimize traffic distribution across all networks — even ones they don't own — by seeing the whole network picture in one location.
• The business context is critical: Although visibility is important, controlling a network in a vacuum is not possible without business context. Every network event or analysis may be connected to important factors, such as revenue and costs, customer and user experience, performance, and risk, thanks to Kentik's real-time integration of app, user, and customer data with actual network traffic.
