The 2024 EMA Network Megatrends surveyed hundreds of IT professionals about their approach to managing, monitoring, and troubleshooting their networks. In this post, we examine the report’s findings to learn the business and technology trends shaping network operations strategy.

From infrastructure and chipsets to data solutions and development tools, it’s clear that artificial intelligence will play a massive role in the future of the cloud. Read Justin Ryburn’s latest recap to learn about many of the exciting unveilings at Google Cloud Next 2024.

AI has been on a decades-long journey to revolutionize technology by emulating human intelligence in computers. Recently, AI has extended its influence to areas of practical use with natural language processing and large language models. Today, LLMs enable a natural, simplified, and enhanced way for people to interact with data, the lifeblood of our modern world. In this extensive post, learn the history of LLMs, how they operate, and how they facilitate interaction with information.

Kentik Journeys uses an AI-based, large language model to explore data from your network and troubleshoot problems in real time. Using natural language queries, Kentik Journeys is a huge step forward in leveraging AI to democratize data and make it simple for any engineer at any level to analyze network telemetry at scale.

We’re bringing AI to network observability. And adding new products to Kentik, including a modern NMS, to simplify troubleshooting complex networks.

Traditional data center networking can’t meet the needs of today’s AI workload communication. We need a different networking paradigm to meet these new challenges. In this blog post, learn about the technical changes happening in data center networking from the silicon to the hardware to the cables in between.

Artificial intelligence is certainly a hot topic right now, but what does it mean for the networking industry? In this post, Phil Gervasi looks at the role of AI and LLM in networking and separates the hype from the reality.
