Buttercup Games, a fictitious game company, recently refactored its e-commerce site to go cloud native. The company uses Network Explorer in Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring to find ​root causes of network errors and optimize network performance.

Site reliability engineers, service owners, engineering executives, and performance engineers at Buttercup Games use Network Explorer for the following examples:

• Identify network problems affecting services

• Identify sources of high network transfer costs
