Traffic Patterns & Congestion

TRAFFIC PATTERNS & CONGESTION

Congestion is experienced by users before it is seen by engineers. Traffic flows are analyzed only after complaints, and the fixes are guesses because the patterns were never captured.

Actors

  • Network Engineer
  • Capacity Planner
  • NOC Manager

Systems / Vendors

  • ThousandEyes
  • SolarWinds
  • Splunk

Business Question

"The network chokes every Tuesday at ten and we've never worked out why — what does that say about our visibility?"

What SPoG Does

  • Analyzes traffic flows continuously to identify congestion points and their causes.
  • Reveals recurring patterns — time, source, application — behind performance complaints.
  • Recommends targeted remediation from evidence, replacing speculative capacity buys.
