Just because your network is "UP," doesn't mean it’s working well! Network issues like choppy VoIP, jerky video calls, and network and application slowness issues can affect your business in drastic ways - which is why it’s important to know how to identify network issues for network performance troubleshooting. There are many problems that can affect network performance, and some of them are very complex to identify and understand.

In today’s dynamic, complex network environments, there’s a big difference between having monitoring data and having intelligence. To troubleshoot issues quickly, it’s vital to have timely, intuitive visibility into the metrics that matter. With the combination of AppNeta and DX NetOps, teams can gain the insights they need to efficiently and intelligently manage their environments.

On Sunday, August 6, an undersea landslide in one of the world’s longest submarine canyons knocked out two of the most important submarine cables serving the African internet. The loss of these cables knocked out international internet bandwidth along the west coast of Africa. In this blog post, we review some history of the impact of undersea landslides on submarine cables and use some of Kentik’s unique data sets to explore the impacts of these cable breaks.

I am happy to share that thanks to the power of the open-source community, and our friends over at Otterize, we have now enhanced our Kubernetes offering for developers with another visual aid to streamline operations and troubleshooting – Dependencies Map. The Otterize network mapper is a zero-config tool that aims to be lightweight and doesn’t require you to adapt anything in your cluster.
