we can detect config issues happening in real time.

And the idea is to correlate cloud paths, routing and user experience.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

So we all know that the biggest issues happen when you start changing your config or fat fingering config files.

Coder Radio

so this particular product actually allows you to simulate changes before your deployment and auto detect any drifts in configuration right and if you think about a multi-domain assurance across cloud and routing and other things this becomes a real thing right so

Just to highlight, one of our customers actually had an intermittent purchase failure in a multi-API workflow.

And Cloud Insights, which is one of our products, it correlated the user impact.

Coder Radio

It went ahead and figured out the path degradation.

Coder Radio

You know, it looked at a routing change which was made, a config push, and then produced the root cause in under two minutes, right?

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

And a human team would take hours figuring it out.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

And this would be like a toss call happening or an escalation call where every team would come on board and we're trying to figure out.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

And look at the root cause here.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

The root cause started with just a configuration change.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

Yeah.

Coder Radio

And look at the example we had.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

So on November 18th, we had a major cloudflare outage.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

And what we observed from a ThousandEyes perspective is

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

We actually saw the network paths to Cloudflare's front end were clean.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

There were no spikes in latency.

Coder Radio
638: Cisco's Thousand Eyes' Murtaza Doctor

There was no packet loss.

The internet paths look all green, but the application traffic was failing with timeouts and 500s.
