💭 Talk Abstracts: Finding the Bottleneck: Root-Cause Analysis with Elastic and Gigamon - Yorrick Barnay (Gigamon) *Modern applications fail across complex service chains, but observability data alone may not reveal where latency begins. In this technical session, Gigamon and Elastic show how network-derived intelligence and application metadata can enrich Elastic Observability. Learn to map client-to-app dependencies, separate network, application, HTTP, and DNS latency, and isolate degraded service edges across hybrid cloud and Kubernetes. Leave with a practical framework for faster, evidence-based root-cause analysis and clearer ownership across network, platform, SRE, and application teams.*
