Kentik Kube brings network observability to Kubernetes. In this Kentik Kube product demo, we navigate a real-time scenario of troubleshooting high latency within a Kubernetes cluster. The Kentik Kube map offers a visualization of our environments, complete with automated alerts and the ability to correlate performance metrics directly to affected pods.

Discover the power of proactive network monitoring in Kubernetes with Kentik Kube. This demo highlights the critical importance of custom dashboards and alerts in maintaining optimal container performance and service availability. We take you through creating a tailored alert for a checkout service within Kentik Kube. From selecting services to diving deep into performance metrics via the Kentik Data Explorer, we show you how Kentik Kube makes it easy to set up policies that monitor and alert you to Kubernetes network issues as they arise.

In the evolving network security and compliance landscape, staying ahead means being proactive. This brief demo shows how Kentik Kube can improve container network security monitoring in Kubernetes infrastructures.

Discover the power of Kentik Kube, the solution for unparalleled network insight into Kubernetes workloads. In this video, Phil Gervasi walks us through Kentik Kube’s ability to track and visualize container traffic across data centers, public clouds, and the internet. Using the interactive Kube map, Phil demonstrates how to troubleshoot a network latency issue affecting an online shopping application, highlighting the tool's capacity for in-depth analysis of pod performance and node-to-node traffic. Learn how to create custom dashboards for custom oversight, set up proactive alerts for performance issues, and enforce security and compliance across your Kubernetes infrastructure.

Artificial intelligence, particularly generative AI and large language models have changed how we approach IT operations, cybersecurity, and observability. And though we can point to measurable benefits and outcomes from applying LLMs to ITOps, there is also a lot of speculation to deal with. Phillip Gervasi, Director of Technical Evangelism at Kentik, and Christoph Pfister, Chief Product Officer at Kentik, discuss what generative AI and LLMs are, how they can be used to improve IT operations, and what the future might hold.

For decades, the scourge of distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks has plagued the internet. Join Doug Madory, Director of Internet Analysis at Kentik, and Aaron Weintraub, Principal Engineer at Cogent Communications, as they explain how organizations can identify customer networks sending the spoofed traffic that leads to DDoS attacks.

Kentik internet analysis expert, Doug Madory, discusses the most notable and significant BGP incidents in the history of the internet, from traffic-disrupting leaks to recent crypto-stealing hijacks. Stretching back to the AS7007 leak of 1997, this webinar uses a historical perspective to explore the questions: what progress has been made and what is the path to finally securing BGP?

In this enlightening panel discussion from the Telco Core Strategy Summit, industry experts discuss the intricacies of cloud core migration. Learn from seasoned professionals, including Kentik’s Justin Ryburn, as they share insights on cloud migration challenges, the importance of automation, and strategies to maintain security and performance.
