Kentik introduces free cloud latency map, offers real-time insight into global cloud performance

Network observability leader Kentik has launched The Cloud Latency Map, a free tool that provides real-time visibility into latency across more than 100 cloud locations worldwide.

Led by Kentik’s Director of Internet Analysis, Doug Madory, the map is designed to help businesses quickly understand latency-related connectivity issues that can impact multi-cloud environments. For the first time, the public can view real-time latency differences between data centers and global cloud locations—an invaluable resource for network administrators and tech enterprises alike.

Madory explains that the Cloud Latency Map helps pinpoint delays caused by broader infrastructure issues, such as undersea cable disruptions. Since most public cloud services rely on shared Internet infrastructure, these insights are crucial for businesses relying on cloud services.

The tool also reveals how connectivity issues impact specific cloud providers, including Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), and IBM.

The map gathers real-time data from Kentik’s extensive network of cloud agents. As a neutral provider, Kentik ensures users receive consistent and unbiased latency data, empowering enterprises to diagnose connectivity issues more accurately across different cloud environments.

In addition to the free tool, Kentik offers Kentik Cloud, a premium product tailored for businesses with complex multi-cloud setups. With Kentik Cloud, network teams can integrate directly with an enterprise’s unique cloud configuration.

This service not only helps optimize costs but also boosts security and enhances network performance. Kentik’s premium solution supports its mission of enabling full visibility across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments through AI-driven insights.

The Cloud Latency Map aligns with Kentik’s broader goal of providing accessible tools that promote network performance and reliability. Available for free on Kentik’s website, the map allows users to explore cloud latency metrics further or learn more about Kentik’s advanced observability solutions.
