WebPageTest has long been the trusted choice for performance experts and top online retailers worldwide to enhance website speed, SEO rankings, user experience, and conversion rates. It provides in-depth diagnostic information on a page's performance, offering actionable insights to measure performance across all major browsers, device types, and network conditions.

With the advent of byte code instrumentation (BCI) in 2008, application performance management took a giant leap in what is known as "inside-out monitoring," that is, monitoring from inside the application. Before that, application monitoring was largely limited to tracking CPU, memory, disk, and process availability. BCI offered new opportunities in terms of how applications could be monitored and what could be monitored from an application performance perspective.

The evolution of generative AI is beginning to rapidly transform the way that we work and communicate. This is only set to increase as generative AI excels in providing business value by driving innovation and making intelligent decisions at unprecedented speeds. However, to fully harness its potential, organisations must ensure that they deploy this revolutionary technology safely, securely and responsibly with the right network connectivity.

The move to software-defined wide area networks (SD-WAN) is happening rapidly, and on a large scale. However, many network operations teams are struggling to contend with the monitoring implications of these technologies. In this post, I’ll outline the visibility gaps posed by SD-WAN, and I’ll detail how DX NetOps by Broadcom addresses these gaps.

With automation pervading the networking world in recent years, APIs have become standard for software and IT specialists. While the jury is out on the exact number of public APIs offered today, all estimates point to their massive (and ever-growing) popularity. Megaport is one of the many thousands of vendors that provides public API access to all our services, enabling our customers to automate and streamline their deployments.

Tired of endless data and complex graphs? Learn what network visualization is and how network monitoring helps you achieve it to visualize your network. Networks are the backbone of business operations, connecting everything from data centers and office branches to cloud services and remote workers. As these networks grow increasingly complex, managing, maintaining and understanding the various flows of traffic in larger networks becomes a significant challenge for many companies.

Network automation has now become mandatory for the current IT environment in cases related to formulating a deep IT base or scheduled maintenance tasks. This becomes apparent as the various networks become more complex and extensive; the IT systems’ overall management and setup cannot occur manually. The solution is attained through network automation that automates numerous network application services including configuration, provisioning, monitoring, and diagnosing.
