Preface

Modern Network Observability explores the current technology landscape for understanding the network operational state. Network monitoring tools have been around for many years, providing insights into how the network is performing. But, in today’s world, the need for combining information (such as model-driven telemetry and with traditional SNMP monitoring) has brought about new tooling for observing networks that have not been seen before.

In the book, we will take you through some of the reasons for using the tooling, how to implement the tooling, and what you can do to integrate with other systems, such as modern AI and ML techniques.
