We started Kentik with the belief that networks are too critical to fly blind. With network observability, we gave network teams a real-time, contextualized, full-fidelity view of everything. But now, something bigger is needed and possible. kentik.com/blog/network-i…

Always a great time chatting with Joel Beasley @moderncto_io on the Modern CTO! We talked about all things AI from AI evolution and impacts, Kentik's Network Intelligence capabilities, and Asimov's 3 laws of robotics. moderncto.io/avi-freedman-2/

I'm excited to share something I've been on this year — a first look at our new O'Reilly Technical Guide on network telemetry, co-authored with Leon Adato. No gates to access: kentik.com/go/ebook/oreil… Our goal is to demystify telemetry, making network data practical and actionable for networkers as well as everyone in the observability ecosystem. It's raw, fresh content - a work in progress. Feedback would be great - what's good, bad, missing? What can we improve? Would love your thoughts, or to our editor (thanks, Gary!) at gobrien@oreilly.com

@danieldibswe Even better would be breaking down how cloud networking is just routing tables, ACLs, and tunnels with strange names and software bugs

Are you all still interested in learning the networking fundamentals? STP, OSPF, BGP, etc? I'm contemplating if there's still interest in doing so and if should spend my time blogging about these. Or are there already enough resources?

@grrrrreg @mipsytipsy People building "answer anything" unfortunately still need to help practitioners explain it better to people who look at dark-themed SPOGs and go "oooooh".

So, we lost the battle to define observability. You know it, I know it. Observability was supposed to *mean* something, and in the early days, it did. "Observability" once meant the kind of exploratory, open ended investigation our systems increasingly demand.

@wcharnock @mipsytipsy Now it just means anything that gets telemetry - anything that used to be called visibility or monitoring, even if it's windows software doing rollups.

@mipsytipsy Maybe we need a catchy word that can't be redefined from "ask any question"?

@mipsytipsy We've seen the same thing in network observability. Originally it meant "answer any question" and that's the fight we're still fighting but ironically now that observability appeared in people's titles in companies, it was often re-classed as "all things that get telemetry".

@sealandprince I will take care - it's part of my duties as the Royal Comma Keeper to take care in such matters.

@avifreedman Mind you don’t drop it and all the commas fall out. It’s easily done I know from experience.

Just published "Escaping Cloud Jail" - kentik.com/blog/escaping-… It's the first in a new series "You're Not Alone." All will come from lessons I’ve learned/am seeing now from working with customers at and before Kentik over the last years. This one is focused on not getting locked in to massive cloud bills. Future topics are areas of hype that a lot of folks I talk to feel behind: Streaming telemetry, IPV6, network automation, security/network observability integration.
