Case Study: PhoenixNAP achieves optimized network visibility, automated DDoS mitigation, and cost savings with Kentik Detect

PhoenixNAP Adds Global Network Visibility and Automates DDoS Attack Mitigation with Kentik

PhoenixNAP, a data center and IT services provider serving mid-market companies worldwide, faced growing DDoS threats and limited visibility from an appliance-based network tool. The company needed a scalable, cost-effective way to monitor its global network backbone and protect customer performance and availability.

PhoenixNAP implemented Kentik Detect® from Kentik to gain SaaS-based, end-to-end network visibility and automate DDoS defense. The result was optimized real-time and historical visibility, faster mitigation through RTBH and BGP route injection, and significant cost savings, including avoiding more than $100,000 per year in prior support and maintenance costs.
