Its a 1990s technology that is mostly singlethreaded and provides you very very fuzzy numbers. 5 min averages are not that useful in situations like today where clients plausibly have access to gigabit+ grades of connectivity. If you cant observe let alone react to a microburst, you&rsquo;re pretty much blindfolded in a modern DC network setting.</p>
