View and identify all BGP issues from a dashboard
All of these features are available through the Catchpoint platform. The market leader in Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM), Catchpoint provides deep visibility into all aspects of the Internet stack that impact your business. Only Catchpoint offers the breadth and depth of IPM solutions to ease IT tasks, network operations, and SREs and deliver Internet resilience with fewer resources.
“With this release, Catchpoint is helping our customers discover BGP issues with more confidence and in less time. We now provide more detailed real-time information from three separate BGP peer sources that we are able to collect from over 1000 BGP peers worldwide. By comparison, our closest competitor monitors fewer than 100 peers and provides data that is at least 15 minutes old. That 15 minute delay is a lifetime when you’re dealing with an issue like a BGP hijack, and you don’t know where your data is going! said Catchpoint Executive Vice President of Product Matt Izzo.
Catchpoint customers agree. “We have never been able to monitor reachability in this detail before using the Catchpoint solution. Now we can determine if a problem is related to BGP advertisement, routing or something else instead of blindly trusting our partners to make everything work as it should,” said Andreas Lunz, Chief Technology Officer, Team Internet.
“The best websites in the world rely on Catchpoint as their primary platform for monitoring, detecting and mitigating BGP incidents, as well as any other incidents in their internet stack,” said Dritan Suljoti, CTO and co-founder of Catchpoint. “Today, every business depends on the Internet to survive, and there really is no other platform that comes close to what we’ve developed over fourteen years of dedication to Internet performance monitoring. ”

ENABLE HYBRID CLOUD AND REDUCE NETWORK LATENCY WHITE PAPER
The hybrid cloud promises to bring together the best of both worlds, allowing businesses to combine the scalability and cost-effectiveness of the cloud with the performance and control you can get from your on-premises infrastructure.
Reducing WAN latency is one of the biggest hybrid cloud performance issues. Leveraging data compression and deduplication can reduce your network latency.
Markets and Markets research firm predicted that the size of the hybrid cloud market is expected to grow from US$38.27 billion in 2017 to US$97.64 billion by 2023.
Colocation facilities offer many benefits of having your servers in the cloud while maintaining physical control of your systems.
The cloud adjacency provided by colocation facilities can allow you to take advantage of their high-bandwidth, low-latency connections to the cloud, as well as provide a solid connection to your on-premises corporate network.
