Brain dump: network visibility

In this post, Brandon Mangold puts his thoughts to paper on the state of network monitoring and visibility.

To this point, monitoring applications need to look at network performance from the perspective of the endpoint and the application. Brandon looks at solutions from ThousandEyes and Cisco’s App Dynamics as examples of this focus.
