What’s almost as important as the data is the ability to query that data very quickly according to your specific role or needs. Using the Kentik Data Explorer, you can manually explore all that data, which is stored in the main tables of the Kentik Data Engine.

However, arriving at specs for other aspects of network performance requires extensive monitoring, dashboarding, and data engineering to unify this data and help make it meaningful. Direct business demands like SLAs (service level agreements) help define firm boundaries for network performance.

One of the more obvious, yet powerful uses for Kentik Detect is a dashboard that provides a comprehensive overview of network traffic across the entire infrastructure: LAN / WAN, internal data centers and public cloud. Kentik makes extensive use of the Sankey visualization type to illustrate relationships within network data.
