"October is National Book Month. We asked our CEO, -Young for his pick to share and here’s what he said.

“My pick is American War by Omar El Akkad. It’s a dystopian novel about a future America divided by climate change and civil war. What makes it powerful is how real it feels—personal tragedy woven into political upheaval. It’s not a light read, but a lasting one.”

Ryan’s favorite line: “Perhaps the greatest sin of war is that it compels you to define yourself by the evil that is done to you.”

Network operations centers (NOCs) often get bogged down with alerts, manual triage, and slow root cause identification. Our latest shows how + automation can change the game by:

1) Detecting issues and elevating priority within minutes
2) Delivering root cause analysis in minutes for complex systems
3) Auto-remediating certain issues (e.g. traffic reroutes, port shutdowns) to limit downtime

If your network needs to be more resilient, cost-efficient, and responsive, this is a must-read!



In this blog, Kore-Tek describes the advancements made possible by artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps) in Network Operations Centers (NOCs).

Haste makes waste.
It's a marathon, not a sprint.
Think twice.
Slow is smooth and smooth is fast. (That one's from the Navy Seals. Must be good!)

Well, these are the essence of our on the value of site assessments. They do make you slow down before you can speed up (yet another piece of wisdom). But sometimes teams are under so much pressure to move forward, there may not be patience to audit, understand, plan, and prepare for where you're going. Our blog breaks down why this is so important.
