Using Kentik Kube, cloud and infrastructure engineers can access detailed network traffic and performance visibility for internal and external traffic for their Kubernetes clusters to quickly detect and solve network problems.

How can you quickly discover misconfigured security groups, access control lists, or routing tables? We explore how practitioners serving distributed teams or customer workloads can tighten up policies, impact costs, and unblock their colleagues with cloud infrastructure observability that starts with the network.

Justin Ryburn describes the complexities of managing a modern enterprise network and the various areas where Kentik can provide observability. Having all of this information in a single platform that is easy to access and highly scalable provides a lot of value to Kentik customers. Justin wraps up with a discussion of Kentik’s roadmap for the future.

Justin Ryburn describes the complexities of managing the network in a modern Kubernetes deployment and how Kentik can provide observability. Leveraging eBPF technology allows network engineers the ability to visualize and make sense of the network traffic within the Kubernetes cluster, as well as traffic entering and leaving the cluster. Justin wraps up with a brief demo of Kentik’s beta Kentik Kube functionality.

Join our Kentik experts and Andrew Green, Research Analyst at GigaOm for a panel discussion on common challenges organizations face as they move their workloads to the cloud. They will discuss some tales from the field and ways organizations can mitigate some of these challenges, such as cost overruns, connectivity interruptions, and security considerations.

In this Kentik demo, Phil Gervasi shows how to perform a forensic analysis after a security breach. Leveraging Kentik's robust visibility into public cloud traffic, we showcase how engineers can effectively identify, analyze, and respond to security incidents. Through a hypothetical scenario, we trace a security alert from its origin—a suspected attack on an Azure-hosted system—to its resolution. Using tools like the Kentik Map and Data Explorer, we identify the attacker's entry point, compromised internal devices, and potential data exfiltration activities.

Kentik's Phil Gervasi explains how Kentik's network observability platform helps IT professionals troubleshoot performance problems with SaaS applications. He demonstrates how Kentik's network observability platform can monitor popular SaaS providers, such as Office 365, Salesforce, GitHub, Dropbox, and more, using synthetic testing mechanisms. By capturing metrics like packet loss, latency, DNS resolution, and page load time, Kentik provides valuable insights into SaaS performance. Phil takes you through a real-life example of investigating a poorly performing SaaS application and showcases how Kentik's tools pinpoint network latency issues, both regionally and globally.
