While APM promises to be a 'single pane of glass' for observability, the reality is that internal monitoring can only tell you so much. Checkly (Synthetic monitoring) and Kentik (Network Observability) are both attempts to complete that picture in a user-friendly manner.
The Limitations of APM
APM tools promise a unified observability platform, yet they inherently focus on internal metrics, traces, and logs. This internal focus, while valuable, misses critical dimensions of the user experience and network performance that are essential for a complete understanding of application behavior in real-world scenarios.
Bridging the Gap with Checkly and Kentik
To address these limitations, we introduce two pivotal technologies: Checkly, for Synthetic Monitoring, and Kentik, for Network Observability.
- Checkly extends the observability landscape by simulating user interactions, providing real-time insights into the user experience from various locations around the world. This external vantage point reveals performance issues and downtime before they impact real users.
- Kentik takes a comprehensive approach to Network Observability, offering visibility into network traffic and performance across cloud and on-premise environments. Kentik uncovers the often-overlooked network layer issues that can significantly affect application performance and user satisfaction.
