Service providers are spending billions of dollars a year dealing with network outages, service degradation and growing security threats. The increase in network traffic is a key factor resulting in these challenges. Consequently, automation is considered critical to enabling service providers to address operations and management issues resulting from this traffic increase. The traditional rules-based approach to implementing automation will not be sufficient to support the level of activity needed to control, manage and secure the network.

In this short video overview, Kentik’s Phil Gervasi explains how the Kentik Data Explorer lets network engineers (including network systems, cloud security and SREs) ask any question about their networks and explore the tremendous amount and variety of network telemetry being collected. Phil talks about the various types of network telemetry you can explore, the many dimensions of that data that can be filtered and analyzed, and gives a quick tour of the Data Explorer interface.

5G promises to unlock a broad set of new services across consumer, enterprise, and industrial domains at lower costs and higher velocity. It will accomplish this by adopting cloud-native, fully automated networks with end-to-end traffic engineering. Cloud native functions, DevOps, and slicing enable 5G networks to scale-in/out, support many use cases, and billions of devices, to deliver on the promise. Unfortunately, as network functions, devices, and SLAs explode, the challenge of operational troubleshooting also increases, by orders of magnitude.
