Telemetry has become a critical component of modern networking, but organizations need better ways to harness the growing volume of data. In this episode of the Tech Field Day Podcast, Tom Hollingsworth is joined by Scott Robohn, Jason Gintert, and Pete Welcher to discuss how telemetry provides real-time insights into network performance, user behavior, and system health. They explore how diverse data sources—from network devices to applications and user endpoints—enable more informed, data-driven decisions. The panel also highlights the importance of turning telemetry into actionable insights through integration, analytics, and clear KPIs, while addressing challenges like data overload by focusing on relevant metrics and proper data structuring.
