Jim Meehan, Director of Solutions Engineering at Kentik, reviews the UI and functionality of the Kentik Detect SaaS platform. This is designed to keep the full resolution of network flow data, rather than an aggregated ingest. This enables the creation of summary reports, while still allowing for drill down into very narrow pieces of data.
