Summary
Lucas and Luna dive into streaming network telemetry — how real-time data from routers and switches, pushed via gRPC and protobuf, is replacing old-school SNMP polling. They unpack a specific case: how one large cloud provider caught a microburst-induced packet loss event within 200 milliseconds using open-config model-driven telemetry, versus the 5-minute polling gap that would have missed it entirely. The hosts explain why the shift from pull to push telemetry matters for network engineers, the role of time-series databases in storing high-cardinality data, and why the industry is moving toward standardized YANG models. If you manage networks or just want to understand how modern internet infrastructure stays reliable, this episode gives you the concrete difference between SNMP and streaming telemetry — and why it's not just a buzzword. #StreamingTelemetry #NetworkMonitoring #gRPC #Protobuf #YANGModels #OpenConfig #SNMP #NetworkObservability #RealTimeData #TimeSeriesDatabase #InfluxDB #Prometheus #Microburst #PacketLoss #NetOps #NetworkEngineering #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
