Cloud Discovery - Insights to CDNs

Taking a look at our Cloud Discovery data we see lots of traffic with CDNs as Akamai. 

Is it possible to get more insights about what content has been delivered on a user or ip basis?

  • Due to the nature of CDNs, it is difficult to identify what is behind their traffic, but we have enabled features that allow a large share of the content behind CDNs to be discovered like any other traffic. You would therefore see it as any other app that is part of the catalog. Now for the leftover traffic, the larger part of it are applications that are not (yet) part of our catalog.
