NGI Community Planning Workshop - 07-2019

[Linda Roos <>]

Hi All,

Kentik Technologies, an Internet2 industry member, has asked us to help spread the word on their support for online instruction to the Higher Ed and Regional community. As we all know, COVID-19 is forcing fundamental changes to the way institutions of higher education deliver content and services. With online instruction now front and center, network availability and performance are more mission-critical than ever. 

To ensure that online instruction is efficient, effective and a great experience, Kentik—provider of a powerful network analytics and monitoring platform, and used in educational, service provider, SaaS, gaming, content, and enterprise networks—is offering qualified higher education institutions, those with a .edu email address, or an approved regional network, complimentary access to their network analytics service, in a limited fashion for six months, with no subscription fees.

Kentik has approached us to ask if we would collaborate with them to help our higher ed and regional members share training, best practices and office hours for setting up the Kentik service during this program. We have agreed to take on this role, and will begin with a webinar this week (see below). Any procurement and licensing of the service through this program will be done directly between the campus or regional and Kentik.  

Please join us for a webinar on Thursday, April 2, 2020, 2:30-3:30 ET when Avi Freedman, Co-founder and CEO of Kentik, will describe the offer and answer your questions. Call details below.

If you are interested in the service, here is a link to register for the service (current Kentik customers aren’t eligible): https://www.kentik.com/go/edu-trial/

See attached for a description of the service and plan to join us on April 2! Thanks.

Linda
