In most cases, monitoring is often viewed as pretty dumb alarm system – built to notify if something goes wrong. However, there could be cases when monitoring software can be used not so straightforward, or apply non-obvious settings or means to handle the task. Some of them are listed below. If you can think of any other case, please let us know in the comments form in the bottom.
The continuous evolution and growth of the endpoint devices in enterprises makes network security management a primary concern for IT departments. As a sysadmin, you strive to ensure the safety and security of every device in your network. You are on a constant lookout for vulnerabilities and issues that might disturb the shield that protects your enterprise devices. With dynamically changing trends and technologies, it’s easy to miss details that might compromise your network’s armor.
When it comes to monitoring web application performance, not only is it necessary emulate user actions, but also network conditions of end-user devices. Network throttling allows you to control connection speeds to better match the experience of real users, allowing you to see web application behavior in specific network conditions. Network connections can vary for many reasons. User location, device type, and browser used are just a few factors that can affect a user’s experience.

These days, it is quite hard to find a person who does not use the Internet. Even older people have already got a web connection for communication and mastering the most popular apps. This makes the Net such a useful tool. However, certain dangers lay under this cross-functionality that can be avoided using Virtual Private Networks or VPNs for short.
Our day to day is a constant investigation. When you were little, very small, you discovered the different names of the colors or the taste of the fruits; then, the pain of acne and your favorite rock bands; and later on, I don’t know, more complex things like the Inland Revenue and the File Transfer Protocol.
By Des Nnochiri Most enterprises now use two or more cloud service providers, and 35% use up to five monitoring tools to keep tabs on hybrid cloud and multi-cloud environments. Even before organizations began shifting software and IT infrastructure to the cloud, a typical business would use four to ten tools just to monitor and troubleshoot their internal networks, according to analyst and consulting firm Enterprise Management Associates.
The increasing complexity of IT Infrastructure demands extensive network visibility and security. For those who have been working in networking for a while, NetFlow is not a new technology. Cisco created the network protocol “NetFlow” many years ago, which became the primary norm for collecting IP traffic information. NetFlow soon found its place within network management by providing valuable data of network performance and traffic analytics.
