For today’s tech tip, we’re going to pivot away from our line items, and focus on the underpinnings of Catchpoint’s Monitoring Solution. The over 800 monitoring nodes we have positioned around the world include a wide range of node types, including backbone and broadband ISPs, cloud providers, mobile, and last mile, which, along with enterprise nodes, allow us to monitor the entire service delivery chain.

Catchpoint detected an AWS outage earlier today, 25th November 2020. Enterprises that had their applications or services running on AWS US East 1 were impacted.

However, by 5:30AM PST, the fallout from the outage was evident.

Recently our CMO, Nik Koutsoukos, and VP Operations, Tony Ferelli, joined Heavy Network on a podcast discussing Digital Experience Monitoring, and how effective monitoring requires a focus on the user experience.

The better monitoring approach is being user-centric.
