[Simplifying Multi-cloud Visibility](/content/blog/simplifying-multi-cloud-visibility/index.html)

by [Phil Gervasi](/content/blog/author/phil-gervasi/index.html)

June 13, 2024

Multi-cloud visibility is a challenge for most IT teams. It requires diverse telemetry and robust network observability to see your application traffic over networks you own, and networks you don’t. Kentik unifies telemetry from multiple cloud providers and the public internet into one place to give IT teams the ability to monitor and troubleshoot application performance across AWS, Azure, Google, and Oracle clouds, along with the public internet, for real-time and historical data analysis.

[Time’s Up! How RPKI ROAs Perpetually Are About to Expire 🙀](/content/blog/times-up-how-rpki-roas-perpetually-are-about-to-expire/index.html)

by [Doug Madory](/content/blog/author/doug-madory/index.html)

& [Job Snijders](/content/blog/author/job-snijders/index.html)

May 30, 2024

In RPKI, determining when exactly a ROA expires is not a simple question. In this post, BGP experts Doug Madory and Fastly’s Job Snijders discuss the difference between the expiration dates embedded inside ROAs and the much shorter effective expiration dates used by validators. Furthermore, we analyze how the behavior effective expiration dates change over time due to implementation differences in the chain of certificate authorities.
