Visibility across the whole application delivery chain — users, network, internet, cloud and application — so performance problems can be traced to their source. ### How Does ThousandEyes Fit In? ThousandEyes monitors the network and internet paths an application depends on, showing where delays or loss occur. ### Who Uses Observability Data? Infrastructure, network and application teams, giving each a shared view of the same performance data. ### What Is Application Dependency Monitoring? Monitoring the services an application relies on — networks, DNS, cloud and SaaS providers — so issues are found before users report them. --- ## Managed Services - Full Stack Observability Summary In this blog, we have briefly discussed how X2 Full Stack Observability can transform our ability to monitor a customer's network.
