Synthetics

Kentik’s product and engineering teams continued rapid iteration on Kentik Synthetics. The mesh test display has been greatly enhanced to handle large meshes, and synthetics widgets are now available for dashboards and My Kentik Portal. Flow-based traffic data has also been added to mesh test results. This builds on Kentik’s unique combination of synthetics and real traffic information to help our customers easily choose and set up the right tests.

New Insights

We’ve also added a number of new traffic comparison insights looking for traffic volume changes, changes in volume for cloud services and regions, and changes in OTT dynamics.

Alerting, DDoS & Mitigation

On the DDoS front, we’ve delivered a number of improvements requested by customers. Some are focused on better visibility into mitigation actions and others on usability improvements for policy configuration and alert history.
