Cisco + Splunk I'll expect Network Observability as your biggest strength and focus. Is a huge market. A lot of kubernetes teams aren't doing network observability right or don’t even know what to be colllecting/instrument and how they should be collecting it and with what. If you can make SNMP v3 and gNMI kubernetes native, that would be really great. And I admire the splunk collector for opentelemetry, that's a smart direction to make building something native to opentelemetry. #observability #networking #networkautomation #kubernetes #networksecurity
