The Network is the Key. The network is down!” — I’m sure you heard that before. Despite your best efforts as a network engineer, network failures happen, and you have to fix them. Network troubleshooting becomes easier if your network is observable. Network Troubleshooting Defined.

A cornerstone of network observability is the ability to ask any question of your network. That means having an unbound capacity to explore the tremendous amount and variety of network telemetry you collect. Imagine collecting all of this great information from all over your network, the cloud, containers, etc.,

When evaluating solutions, whether to internal problems or those of our customers, I like to keep the core metrics fairly simple: will this reduce costs, increase performance, or improve the network’s reliability? It’s often taken for granted by network specialists that there is a trade-off among these three facets. Durability.

When more of the workforce shifts to working remotely, it puts new and different strains on the infrastructure across different parts of the network, especially where VPN gateways connect to the network edge. This could mean the users are saturating the internet connectivity or that they’ve saturated the LAN (or maybe WAN).
