Network professionals turn to the Kentik Network Observability Cloud to plan, run and fix any network, relying on our infinite granularity, AI-driven insights and insanely fast search. Kentik makes sense of network, cloud, host and container flow, internet routing, performance tests and network metrics. We show networking pros what they need to know about their network performance, health and security to make their business-critical services shine. Networks power the world’s most valuable companies, and those companies trust Kentik for network observability. Market leaders like IBM, Box and Zoom rely on Kentik for network observability. Visit us at https://www.kentik.com and follow us at @kentikinc.

Modern applications residing in a third-party data center or cloud regions are composed of multiple services separated by a network path. Solving application performance requires identifying the source of the problem. Network pros need to quickly determine whether the application, the network or the internet is the cause.

In this webinar, Anil Murty and Sunil Kodiyan from Kentik’s product team introduce Kentik’s new page load and synthetic transaction testing capabilities, alongside existing network layer performance measurement features. Learn about: * An overview of Kentik and Kentik Synthetics * Why page load and transaction testing are important for optimal digital experience monitoring * How to reduce mean-time-to-resolution (MTTR) by running network tests alongside web layer tests

Learn how Kentik can help you get ready to ace business reviews with peering partners. What you’ll learn:

Picking the right topics
Collecting the data
Finding your BATNA (best alternative to negotiated agreement)
Creating an overview that demonstrates mutual benefit for both you and your partner.

How to prepare for a peering partner business review

Monitoring the network to stay ahead of problems is getting harder. The siloed device-centric hardware of the past does not work. IT departments are adopting new approaches to keep up with today’s complex, multi-vendor hybrid networks.

How you can automate monitoring

How to monitor Kubernetes using synthetic testing

As a network service provider, you want your customer to see that you consistently deliver excellent performance. You send your customers periodic reports — but those only provide a snapshot. With synthetic tests, you can present your customers with a dynamic report through a public web page, linkshare or a customer branded portal. Watch webinar replay to learn how Kentik’s API can be used with network performance meshes in Kentik Synthetics to build a live latency report. Kentik’s Anil Murty and Martin Machacek will show you: * Kentik Synthetics mesh tests and how can they be used to proactively monitor PoP to PoP performance * How to use public link shares to speed up root cause analysis with external partners * How to use Kentik’s API to showcase synthetic test results in customer service portals * Kentik’s open-source reference SLA web app for showcasing service provider network performance publicly

The value of performance mesh testing for service providers

BGP isn’t just for ISPs and hosting providers anymore. As we saw with Facebook’s historic outage, it’s now a necessity for digital enterprises to proactively monitor BGP. In this webinar, Director of Product Management Anil Murty introduces Kentik’s proactive BGP monitoring capabilities.

Why you should monitor BGP and where to start?

As an ISP, your operations are measured by cost, uptime and customer service. But how do you know if you’re on the right track to meet your service objectives? Take a step back, dig into the design and operation of ISP networks, and learn how data can help you meet your KPIs.

If you haven’t heard of network observability yet, you will very soon. And you’ll be hearing it a lot. Some say it is just marketing hype. Some say networks have always been observable. But network observability is the most important new concept to hit the network performance monitoring space in years. Join Kevin to learn: * How we define network observability and where the term comes from * How to relate network observability to APM and DevOps * What vendors are doing about network observability * What you need to do to make network observability work for you

What is network observability and why you should care

Find out what NPM has become and why legacy solutions met their demise. Get in-depth details about these three must-have monitoring techniques: * BGP monitoring exposes attacks and route changes. * HTTP and API monitoring can isolate slowness not related to the network. * Traceroute uncovers internet trouble spots such as specific routers within ISPs. Discover why these technologies bring deeper visibility into how your company’s internet connections and applications are being impacted and by whom. Identify the third parties to reach out to when problems occur and see where to focus your optimization efforts.

What is network performance monitoring and how is it evolving in the cloud era?

Kentik product expert Justin Ryburn gives an overview and demonstration of Kentik Synthetic Monitoring, the industry’s first unified synthetic monitoring and network traffic analytics solution. Justin shows how to set up new synthetic tests, configure and understand performance meshes, shows Kentik's free SaaS application monitoring features, Kentik's network of global synthetic testing agents, and demonstrates how to deploy private agents in your own network infrastructure.

Digital Experience Monitoring with Kentik

In this webinar, we explain how—and why—tools like traceroute, when used as part of synthetic monitoring, provide deep insight into network problems such as SaaS or cloud application slowdowns. 

Founder and former CEO of Plixer, Michael Patterson, will demonstrate: 
* How to diagnose SaaS or cloud application slowdowns. 
* How to understand acceptable versus unacceptable performance. 
* How synthetic monitoring can be used to establish performance baselines and diagnose network issues.

How to Monitor Cloud Services ... and Why it Matters

Less than 3% of digital experience snafus are found before users are affected. You need to catch these problems before your users do. Join Anil to learn how synthetic network monitoring helps make digital experiences sparkle. Kentik Director of Product Management Anil Murty explains the basics of proactive synthetic testing and shows how you can use Kentik to: * Simulate user traffic to proactively detect and resolve outages or performance issues. * Track uptime and SLOs of critical networking constructs, services and paths. * Achieve reliable and performant deployments by adding synthetics into ops automation. * Monitor critical networking services proactively in production and eliminate poor networking performance across the user journey.

Digital Experience Monitoring: How to Proactively Monitor Network Performance

Public and hybrid cloud has led to a new era of agility, scale and performance, particularly for the networking that underlies enterprise applications. Yet, more than 80% say their network monitoring hasn’t kept up with major problems that need to be solved. A new approach is required – it’s network observability.
