The Kentik Observability Cloud is an internet-scale, highly available, distributed system and forms the foundation for Kentik's ability to deliver complete end-to-end network observability to our customers. Kentik Cloud is a product built on top of, and seamlessly integrated into this platform. It provides customers the ability to observe their public and hybrid cloud environments, and understand how the network impacts user experience, application performance, costs, and security.

Kentik Cloud shows a unified end-to-end network view to, from, and across public clouds, the internet, and on-premises infrastructures. It supports all major public cloud environments, and provides details on path, performance, traffic, connectivity type, and associated costs. A newer module, Kentik Kube, currently in beta, takes eBPF and other telemetry to show all of the above in Kubernetes environments.
