Traditional network monitoring relies on telemetry sources such as Simple Network Messaging Protocol (SNMP), sFlow, NetFlow, CPU, memory, and other device-specific metrics. With so many network boundaries being navigated (application, service, cloud providers, subnets, SD-WANs , etc.), What is network telemetry?

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?
